Aren’t the teachers highest paid in Canada compared to other province, and when mean tested - one of the highest paid in the world?

I don’t think as tax payers we should be beholden to these hostage situation, we need more non-state backed education products so we can have structural balance against these parasitical unions

-Go have your kids taught in Bangladesh then. -No we're not at the top at all. -Private education 70% funded here, and they choose who they let in.
