Canada: Ontario high school teachers reach a deal with government

The presidents of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) backed the deal late last week, and in doing so announced that planned job action would be cancelled. Teachers vote to ratify the deal in early September.

The new three-year, tentative agreement sees teachers receive an additional professional development day, a salary increase of 1.5 percent along with a 1 percent one-time payment.

Earlier in the summer teachers threatened to halt all extracurricular sports activities if a deal was no reached.
