Teachers Union To Speak Out Against Provincial Deal
The leaders of four unions will be commenting today on a deal reached yesterday between the province and the English Catholic Teachers Association.
The Catholic teachers broke ranks with other unions, by accepting a two year wage freeze and three unpaid professional development days, which the Liberal says amounts to a 1.5-per-cent pay cut.
The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario has called the government's demands ``insulting.''
