"Does Alberta legally have that latitude? " jtmab, unless the situation is changed, Alberta should be able to change their program since the provinces run their own health programs. So this is where you have been! I hear Enron is news even in England! Cheers, Mephisto

"but I'd be inclined to pull out all the sugar and fat dispensers in the schools, vending machines or what they serve in the school cafeteria along that line" It's even worse than that. The schools get HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars from the vendors of sugar water and fatburgers that run the cafeteria concessions and split the take with the schools, which they justify as "gee, we need the money". Meanwhile they hire more administrators, rather than teachers. They, plus ads, are training kids to eat crap.
