Did you move to Alberta in the past few years and are having schooling challenges? Tell us about it
Remember that big campaign the Alberta government ran starting in 2022 to entice people from Ontario to move out west? A lot of people answered the call, but many are now discovering the province doesn't have enough room in its schools for all of the people who brought their families and kids in tow. Alberta has a major plan to build more student spaces, but that's still a ways away.
Globe reporter Dave McGinn is looking to speak to people in the Calgary and Edmonton areas who are dealing with these schooling challenges. Have you been looking for other options, like private schools? Considering moving neighbourhoods to find a spot for your kids? Or have you not found it to be an issue at all? Reach out to him at DMcGinn@ or send in your story by filling out the form below.
And if you aren't in this situation but know someone who is, forward this over. Based on the numbers, you're likely to know someone who made the move.
