Episode Details

Calgarys Board of Education trustees approved a salary raise, citing inflation and the need to attract top talent. Starting September 1, 2026, each trustees annual pay will increase by $1,502 to $51,099. The board chair and vice-chair will receive additional $12,000 and $5,500 annually, respectively. The decision was made by a committee of trustees and labor experts, with most trustees supporting the move. However, Ward six and seven rep Patricia Bolger voted against it. The raise is tied to Calgarys consumer price index average over the last three years and is seen as a way to keep pay competitive with other big-city peers and draw qualified folks to public service. The decision will be reviewed in the next school budget cycle.
