Well, what you have to understand right now is that the teachers are running an ILLEGAL strike. The government could've arrested all these teachers on the picket lines, but that's way too many teachers. Let alone FIRE them all.
Today the BC Supreme Court ruled that all the teachers would NOT receive pay from their union when they're on strike, because it's totally unreasonable to be paid for doing something illegal. In addition, the British Columbia Teachers Federation is having all their assets frozen, and the judge has appointed monitors to make sure no offices, websites, telephones, faxes, etc, are used in order to push this strike further. I say they should've given the teachers a big fat fine, but NOOO. |
