The Ford government will introduce new legislation to rescind Bill 28, the Keeping Students in Class Act. It is expected to receive unanimous consent from all parties to push it through.
Premier Doug Ford is set to repeal the controversial bill that ordered 55,000 striking school staff to return to work and imposed a four-year contract on them — sparking an outcry from the labour movement — as talks with their union continue.
“Repealing Bill 28 is important for maintaining the fundamental freedoms of all workers here and across the country, and for the credibility of the Ford government.” Premier Doug Ford backed away from Bill 28 last week, after CUPE’s support staff walked off the job for two days in spite of the legislation banning strikes. His use of the “” to impose a contract was met with widespread criticism, especially among both public and private labour unions.
Under Bill 28, daily fines were set at $4,000 per individual and $500,000 for the union — or more than $220 million a day,“We will be limiting our comments to the media while in mediation to better direct our efforts to reaching a freely negotiated agreement,” said CUPE, which initially engaged in transparent bargaining by posting all offers and information online.
