A union representing 55,000 Ontario education workers says it has reached a deal with the provincial government.
The Canadian Union of Public Employees said the deal was no different than what the government offered last week when the union issued a five-day strike notice. That walkout, which would have come two weeks after another one, was planned because the union said it was trying to secure staffing level guarantees from the province.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary SUN, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.
The 55,000 education workers such as early childhood educators, custodians and administrative staff are set to vote on ratification over several days starting Thursday.
The looming strike would have come two weeks after CUPE’s last walkout, which shut many schools across the province for two days.
