Just days after the Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario issue an overwhelming strike mandate with a 95% vote in favour, the same has happened with Ontario’s English Catholic Teachers Association.
They delivered a 97% vote in favour following a province-wide vote October 18th and 19th.
The OECTA released a statement following where President Rene Jansen in de Wal said it sends a clear message to the Ford Conservative Government and the representatives of the Catholic Board that teachers want to see meaningful progress and results at the bargaining table that address the lack of resources, supports and time teachers need to better serve their students.
