Ontario elementary school teachers to resume contract talks with province

The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario is set to resume contract talks Wednesday with the province.

The union represents roughly 80,000 workers says it will resume job action after March Break if a deal isn’t reached.

Last week, Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservative government made concessions on two key issues that mainly affect secondary school teachers.

The province’s English Catholic school system teachers and French-language teachers are also expected to continue talks Wednesday.

All four major teachers’ unions have been in contract talks with the government since September 2019.
