Inside the News with Peter Mansbridge.

I haven’t posted anything on this site for a while, because I’ve been busy with a guest column I’m writing for The Record, one of our local by-weekly papers in the Comox Valley.  However, this is worth sharing.  Peter Mansbridge is a high school dropout, but he did ok.  Still, he has a great respect for teachers and decries the vitriolic attacks on them by the ignorant and the uninformed. Worth reading.  I’m confident the ignorant will not read this and even if they did, they wouldn’t change their minds about anything.  The ignorant rarely change their minds about anything.
