Breaking News – CUPE Agrees to Withdraw Their Strike Action Says Ford Government

In Editor Choice, Local

The Ford government has released a statement from Education Minister Stephen Lecce that says:

“CUPE has agreed to withdraw their strike action and come back to the negotiating table. In return, at the earliest opportunity, we will revoke Bill 28 in its entirety and be at the table so that kids can return to the classroom after two difficult years. As we have always said and called for, kids need to be back in the classroom, where they belong.”
