Hon. Thomas Lukaszuk
Minister of Education,
Progressive Conservative Candidate, Edmonton-Castledowns

Dear Thomas:

The Honourable James (Jim) Flaherty, PC, MP deserves a lot of credit IV his budget in ensuring First Nations got $275 million dollars more in funding IV education. They wanted $500 million, so the Conservative Finance Minister & MP IV Whitby-Oshawa met them more than half way. Let us hope that the funds get right II the students & are not given to corrupt band officials who will just piss it away on themselves & then complain years later vthat even more cash needs II be allotted to the kids. First Nations should be greatful IV what they got as many departments had their budgets cut!

To Coin A Phrase,

Rory
