Reform BC MLA Richard Neufeld urged before any school board cuts that the government first dismantle the new Francophone Education Authority, which costs over 4 million dollars annually for about 2,000 students. He supports trimming districts from 75 to about 50 and calls for more parental input and charter school options.

He accuses Harcourt of complicity in the NCHS scandal and the Parks Report cover up, and argues the party’s history of profiting from stolen charity funds will haunt the NDP regardless of leadership.
