^ Well, usually teachers just cut off the not-so-necessary stuff if the strike is long enough.

The joys of no school aside, the teachers are being incredibly unreasonable. On their TV commercials to rally up support, all the teachers talk about is how much they want to improve school for the children of BC. Yeah, my ass they do.

"We want to decrease class size so children can have more one on one attention! We want to reduce the amount of mentally-challenged children in regular classes!" and then they casually slip in, "it wouldn't hurt to increase our salary by, oh, I don't know, FIFTEEN PERCENT."

They are all hypocrites.
