CUPE school staff continue to vote this weekend on a tentative, four-year deal reached with the province — and the union now says the result will be released Monday morning.
In a revised scheduled, CUPE’s Ontario School Boards’ Council of Unions said the vote — which began Nov. 24 — will close on Sunday and president Laura Walton will make an announcement Monday morning at Queen’s Park.
The government, school boards and union worked out the tentative contract after the province backtracked and repealed Bill 28, controversial legislation that pre-emptively tried to ban a strike by the 55,000 workers and impose a contract on them using the Charter’s “notwithstanding” clause.
