Quebec teachers call off April 27 strike after making negotiating progress


 
MONTREAL --
A planned teacher walkout on Tuesday, April 27 has been called off, two Quebec teachers' unions said Friday evening.
The Federation of Teaching Unions (FSE-CSQ) and the Provincial Association of Teachers of Quebec (APEQ-QPAT) have decided to show their members a proposal they got from the Treasury Council.
It's too soon to call this a deal, they said, but it's a good enough start that the one-day strike is off.
"Under the circumstances, the organizations can't speak of an agreement in principle since, despite interesting gains, some of their priorities have not been achieved," the unions wrote in a press release.

Despite first deal with one union group, 73,000 Quebec teachers still planning April 27 walkout


 
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.
