A particularly passionate candidate for Moncton City Council stopped my wife and I on the street recently and at an appropriate social distance railed against the closure of downtown schools. This was her animating issue - it was why she was running for council. She had young children and was offended the provincial government was eventually going to move all the K-12 schools out of the downtowns. This wasn’t just hyperbole. She said that someone told her it was inevitable.
Love this idea! As someone who will be starting a family in the coming years (and who personally spent at least one hour each day on school busses from kindergarten to high school), trying to find a home (in Fredericton) within walking distance of schools will be a big priority for me.
