On August 27th the government is set to pass anti-collective bargaining legislation that strips us of our constitutionally protected rights and imposes so-called "agreements" on us. Particularly for occasional teachers, we need to have the ability to bargain local issues; we have too many issues that get ignored at the provincial level.
On August 28th, ETFO, CUPE, and OSSTF will be holding a protest at Queen's Park from noon till 1:30pm.
There will be free buses leaving from the CAW Hall at 124 Bunting Rd. at 9:00am on Tuesday. The bus will leave Queen's Park at 2:00pm to return home. Bring a lunch and something to drink.
We need you on the bus! To reserve your spot (and help me know how many buses we'll need), please RSVP by e-mailing mark@niagaraot.org
