Education and Early Childhood Development

The following is a statement from Education and Early Childhood Development Minister Karen Casey.

"I was very disappointed to learn about the outcome of the vote this evening. The collective bargaining process has run its course. This is the second time we reached a tentative agreement with different bargaining teams from the NSTU that was rejected by the membership. We will not be returning to the table, we now await the union’s decision."
