OTTAWA -- It will be another week of labour disruptions in classrooms in Ottawa and across eastern Ontario.
The Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association and the union representing teachers in French-language schools will hold a province-wide, one-day strike on Thursday, March 5.
The Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation will hold a one-day strike in several boards on Thursday, but none of the boards are in Ottawa and eastern Ontario.
The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario has no strikes planned this week. But ETFO president Sam Hammond said last week that if a deal is not reached, the union will move to the next phase of its strike protocol on Monday, March 9.
Here’s a look at strike dates for schools in Ottawa and eastern Ontario this week (March 2 to 6).
