Alberta teachers’ union files labour complaint, alleges province engaged in ‘bad-faith bargaining’

The UCP used the Notwithstanding Clause to take away teachers rights to negotiate for better working conditions, and to enable them to negotiate in bad faith.

I think this bad faith is similar to the UCP’s use of legislation to punch a hole in Canadian retirement funds when AIMCo gambled away around $1.3 Bln. Links below.

Jason Schilling, the president of the ATA, said at a news conference on Friday that he believes the government is attempting to “rewrite its own commitments,” and that the ATA wants clarification on what was agreed to at the bargaining table regarding the plan to bring in additional teachers.

“What was told at the bargaining table and then was commented afterwards, it seemed to be two different things and we need clarity on them,” he said.

“What will come out of the complaint is hopefully that we hold the government [accountable] for what they said.”

…

In the ATA’s recent email to its members, it said the “ATA understood — and TEBA’s bargaining conduct implied — that these 3,000 teachers were additional to the staffing already funded and announced in Budget 2025.”

Schilling said the government “insists” that the phrase “net new” meant any increase in teachers over the prior year, even if those positions were already funded by Budget 2025.

“If that was their interpretation, then nothing was new at all,” he said.

“The 3,000 teachers they pointed to during the bargaining were already announced, already budgeted and already counted in the 2025 budget.”

Alberta legislature passes bill invoking Charter override for fourth time

Speaking to the bill earlier in the evening, NDP critic Kathleen Ganley called it “offensive to the rule of law and to our entire democracy” to use the overarching power of the notwithstanding clause on transgender youth who are “already at a higher risk of suicide.”

“It was put in the Constitution to be used judiciously, to be used rarely, to be used only in exceptional circumstances,” Ganley told the house.

“I don’t think anyone ever envisioned the possibility it might be used four times in a month by a government.”

…

The Canadian Medical Association has challenged the law in court, saying it violates a doctor’s right to freedom of conscience.

The Alberta Medical Association has repeatedly said puberty blockers do not render a person infertile or sterile and protect transgender children from more permanent changes that come with puberty.

Some families of transgender kids involved in a separate lawsuit that challenged the health-care restrictions have said their kids will be devastated once the law comes into effect, and some have said they will need to leave the province for the safety of their child.
