The teachers and the ATA will never be satisfied with any type of salary increase or increase in teachers or teachers aids...The ATA is only interested in achieving more political and union power, financial clout and authority to fuel their far left Marxist militant demands against the government, parents and anyone who would dare question or hold the ATA accountable for their gross abuse of power and using our kids as their political pawns......This entire teachers saga has become nothing but a strategized political stunt and smear campaign against the UCP, likely with the NDPs collusion and blessing.....
Time to look at private schools! The union backed by the NDP is a problem. Maybe pay those who home school their children because what is being pushed in schools (woke) is a big problem that needs to be addressed! Teachers are not to be pushing their personal ideologies!
Student’s learning is apparently at the back of the bus. The NDP and teacher’s union are one and the same. One side is the right arm and the other is the left arm. If a NDP government would have made the original offer, the union would have accepted it and sang praises. Totally political and hopefully people will have their eyes opened to the true agenda.
Sound logic and reasoning, Kris. However, as is typical concerning lefties and Public Sector Unions (but I repeat myself), logic and reason has nothing to do with anything. It's about "feelings" and "values" and, a whole raft of other things (power, control, influence, cronyism) that have nothing to do with the socratic method.
These teachers unions are barking up the wrong tree ... go after your boards' gross fiscal mismanagement for ALL the billions you want & leave tax payers alone.

Unreal…
They could have gone back to work and been paid while talks went on.
Another 2+ billion, really! New schools being built, more teachers etc

That extra $2-Billion is the NDP telling them to demand it because they are trying to impress the teachers, it's all smoke & mirrors
