About the Episode

This episode is all about rural Alberta! We sat down with Kevin Van Lagen who is a principal, educator and who also lives and works in rural Alberta. So in this episode, we talk rural education, the importance of public education in rural Alberta, what the recent changes to municipal revenue structures have done to erode UCP support in rural Alberta and how Kevin sees the future of rural Alberta and potential pathways to seeing small town thrive again!
