The sanctions renewal vote follows teachers’ rejection of what government called their final offer for a provincial collective bargaining agreement.“We welcome the resumption of negotiations this week, and we are optimistic that teachers’ decisive rejection of the government’s contract offer, and this renewed sanctions mandate, will serve as a wake-up call,” STF President Samantha Becotte said.

STF said talks continued Thursday, and both committees have agreed to meet again on Friday to continue negotiations. “STF members expect that an agreement will be negotiated that will address students’ needs and teachers’ working environments,” STF said.Message found in bottle in New Brunswick begs finder to ‘let me out’
