Having the same fight here in Ontario and Toronto where the school teachers have had wage freezes, cut backs on sick days and all sorts of stuff - yet the schools still expect them to do the before and after school clubs with no compensation. It's a huge mess and a lot of tensions at the start of the school year. Teachers are refusing to do additional work like this, or wearing black armbands on Wednesday, others are refusing after school meetings etc. Teachers are already massively unpaid and not valued for the work they do and it just makes me sick.
Sorry for the rant - this was all over the news for us the last month.
