URGENT - Be at Queen's Park - Tuesday, Aug 28/12

Your Rights are on the Line
On Tuesday August 28th, come with us to Queen's Park and stand up for bargaining rights, public education, and democracy.
Express your opposition to the government's plan to legislate your wages and benefits through the proposed Putting Students First Act and convey how betrayed you feel by this government's actions.
The Liberals are misleading the public about teachers and other education professionals jeopardizing the start of the school year and creating an artificial crisis.
This legislation is unprecedented in its attack on bargaining rights.  Its effects will be felt for decades to come. Stand with members of ETFO, OSSTF, CUPE Ontario, and others to demand your right to fair negotiations.
