Breaking: The Ontario government filed an application with the labour board to stop job action from CUPE education support workers who walked off the job on Friday to defy the passing of a bill that stripped them of their right to strike.

. Under the legislation, the union and its members face the threat of hefty fines for striking: up to $4,000 a day for individual members and up to $500,000 a day for the union, which has said it will cover those costs and attempt to fight the fines in court.

OSBCU president Laura Walton told reporters that her workers will strike “for as long as it takes,” despite the legislation. The Premier’s use of the notwithstanding clause has also prompted criticism from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who spoke with Mr. Ford by phone late Wednesday about the issue, and federal Justice Minister David Lametti, who has mused about intervening but has not provided specifics.

What’s the latest in CUPE and Doug Ford’s school fight in Ontario? Bill 28 and labour rights explained OSBCU’s president, Ms. Walton, said the government wouldn’t budge on the terms of the contract imposed by its legislation, after rejecting a union counteroffer on Wednesday. That offer included roughly 6-per-cent annual increases for workers that the union said have long been underpaid and make on average $39,000 a year. The union had previously demanded 11.7 per cent in annual wage hikes.

Other unions in the province have voiced support for education workers and spoken out against the use of the notwithstanding clause. Education workers with the Ontario Public Service Employees Union, which acts for 8,000 such workers, said they would walk off the job Friday in solidarity with those on strike. Some private-sector unions, including the local wing of the Labourers’ International Union of North America , which has long supported the Premier, had also urged him to withdraw the bill.
