Negotiations Breakdown Memo January 12, 2001. The deadlock occurred when the Board insisted they could not pay us at the same rate as our colleagues in York Region. They further insisted that we must provide supervision and coverage so that they could maintain the school system, in spite of the fact that we now are required to teach an additional half credit. Consequently, we remain on strike.
Members can now expect a public debate on the merits of the positions of both parties.
