Have you seen this, in our pageshere?
While Quebec has hired 9,200 non-legally qualified teachers, a record number, applications from qualified teachers are being refused under the pretext… that they are TOO qualified!
You don’t have a patent?
Come teach in our classes!
Do you have a certificate, a doctorate in educational sciences and 20 years of experience teaching French in secondary schools?
Stay at home, we don’t want you!
We are looking for people who are NOT qualified!
Who don’t have experience!
And who have never set foot in a classroom!
New blood, friends!
Freshness!
Something new!
A new approach!
A new look!
EXPERIENCE IS A HANDICAP!
We would laugh to the point of tears if it weren’t so sad…
Imagine if we adopted this approach for our hospitals.
“You worked 20 years as a surgeon in a hospital? Hmmmmm, no thanks. We are looking for people who have experience in butchery. Or sewing.”
Well, OK, I’m exaggerating, but… damn!
One of two things.
Or we actually distrust expertise and prefer fruit that is still green to overripe fruit.
Or it’s just a bureaucratic error, like there are thousands in Quebec.
The left hand that doesn’t know what the right hand is doing.
Knowing Quebec, both are possible.
First, in Quebec, we have a transmission problem. It is considered that everything that is old is necessarily out of date. Exceeds. Obsolete.
We want youth!
A blank page is better than an old sheet that has taken a bad fold!
And second, the Quebec state is like a centipede that spends its time stumbling.
500 legs go left, 500 go right.
Some go backwards, others move forward.
Result: we go in circles.
And we run into the walls.
On the second floor, people complain about a lack of qualified teachers.
On the first floor, qualified teachers are refused.
Understand who can.
It’s the madhouse.
As Gaétan Barrette regularly tells me at QUB: “It goes as it is done.”
That is to say everything is crooked.
EVERYONE CAN BE A TEACHER!
Remember what we did with sexuality classes.
We said that it was up to each teacher to talk to children about sexuality.
The music teacher plays the pipe? He will talk about fellatio!
Is the French teacher an expert in languages? Cunnilingus!
As for the math teacher, it’s all there: 69!
Come on, hop!
And the religion teacher will talk about the missionary position!
No need for training in sexology, oh no!
Training, expertise, experience, it limits, it clogs.
You have to get out of the box!
Do things differently!
Be open to new ideas!
A teacher without experience is a teacher who experiences!
And anyway, what is a teacher, eh? A person who tells you about the books they have read!
Anyone can do this!
In libraries, we hire drag queens to liven up reading hours!
A wig, fake breasts, and that’s it!
No more complicated than that…
