Sadly, the real reason many send their children to private schools, and enrollment is growing, is their dissatisfaction with the BCTF. This union always says they are striking for the children and public education but in reality it is for themselves. There is no business that I know of that the workers can set their own working conditions. Sadly, this contract issue, much like that of the HEU, were set in the dying days of the last NDP.
Watch for greater uncertainty under a NDP government with the teachers. With big donations to the NDP cause from the BCTF, they will be looking for even greater paybacks. There will be more labour disruption in the school system and an even greater migration to private schools.
If you want to call someone a liar, may I suggest you point your taunts to the NDP. They cannot promise everything for nothing. In the end, someone actually pays.
