Alberta’s teachers union has announced its intention to take legal action following the passage of back-to-work legislation by the provincial government.
The teachers strike started on Oct. 6 after talks broke down between the Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) and the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), which bargains on behalf of school boards. Teachers said they were looking for a salary increase, and wanted the province to address classroom “complexity” issues.
