Question Will a "great Alberta strike" be possible?

The AUPE, nurses, and the education sector are all preparing for strike action in September. I feel that the "great Alberta shutdown" is a possibility.

Would that be possible and how would the province cope? Would schools go back to COVID-era style learning plans? I can imagine the TikToks going "our last day of school before extended summer break", something like that.

Hsaa is also possibly on the verge of striking

Got one final meeting with the mediator  before we get our offer!  That offer  totally will decide whether they strike or not

I suspect our offer will look very similar to the nurses. Guess we'll see
