MONTREAL While Quebec teachers unionized with one group will soon be asked to vote on their agreement in principle, the members of another major union are still planning a walkout on April 27 over their lack of a deal. The 49,000 teachers unionized with the Autonomous Federation of Teachers, or the FAE, will be called upon, in the coming weeks, to vote on the agreement in principle, which took one more step on Friday when it was ratified by their federal negotiating council. The tentative deal has gotten some praise so far, from both sides. Quebec Minister of Education Jean-François Roberge described it as a giant leap for the recognition of teachers.
