Rally Thursday to support teachers

BC's labour leaders have issued a statement of solidarity with BC’s teachers, who started full-scale strike action across the province today, and are organizing a solidarity rally for Thursday, June 19.

Teachers are holding strong against the BC Liberal government’s assault on our public education system. We need to send a clear message to Christy Clark and the BC Liberals that they must respect the work of our teachers and negotiate a settlement in good faith.

The B.C. Federation of Labour and the BC Teachers’ Federation are co-hosting a rally:

• Thursday, June 19
• 6:00 pm
• Canada Place - 999 Canada Place, Vancouver

Rallies are also being planned in other cities. Information will be updated as it becomes available. Join us at a rally to support teachers, our kids, and public education in BC!
