Mr. Eggen: You know, it’s a little lesson in humble pie, which is a much easier thing to digest and eat than a bologna sandwich, which I was tasting previously. I hope that everybody is reminded about that as they move forward.
An Hon. Member: What’s wrong with bologna?
Mr. Eggen: Well, no. I’m a fan of bologna. I don’t want to denigrate bologna sandwiches. With a fair bit of mustard in there, they taste pretty good.

An Hon. Member: Exhibit A.
Mr. Eggen: Yeah. Perhaps I’m exhibit A. I was in public school, of course, K to 12. There wasn’t even a kindergarten when I went to school. There was just 1 to 12.
An Hon. Member: Dinosaurs.
Mr. Eggen: Yeah. We were fighting dinosaurs in the morning, and then – you know, that was kindergarten, I guess. Anyway, let’s stay on topic, shall we?

Mr. Eggen: It highlights the survey that we had with Albertans, the largest survey that we’ve ever had with Alberta Education, more than 32,000 participants, and we published the results. Quite frankly, we published the good, the bad, and the slightly awkward even. There were 50 people who said that we should get rid of Shakespeare. As an English teacher we’re not going to do that. [interjections]

Mr. Ellis: Minister, will you commit to allowing educators to receive training to recognize low blood sugar symptoms and administer life-saving insulin to diabetic students?
The Speaker: The hon. Minister of Education.
Dr. Starke: You don’t give insulin for low blood sugar.
Mr. Eggen: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. An interesting medical diagnosis going on here on the floor of the Legislature...
The Speaker: Thank you, hon. minister. The hon. member. [interjections]
Mr. Ellis: Yeah. Sorry, Mr. Speaker. I’m just trying to help kids. I’m not a vet or a doctor.

Mr. Eggen: I’m very pleased to rise today and introduce to you and through you to all members of the House 32 members of the television and radio arts program from NAIT, here in the city of Edmonton ... I’m sure they’re going to learn lots of hot tips on how to cover politicians here this afternoon. If they could all please rise. Join me in giving them a warm traditional welcome.
The Speaker: I’m not sure if that’s good news or bad news.

Mr. Eggen: Yeah. Well, you have, like, the most kids of the whole province in that particular corner of Calgary. I don’t know what they’re doing down there, but they’re producing a lot of kids.
Mr. Fraser: Yeah. Well, we have lots of fun. Let me put it that way.
