Days after Ontario education workers gave their union a strike mandate, the premier is asking them not to.
Premier Doug Ford called on education workers to avoid a strike, saying — quote — “please don’t go on strike, don’t force my hand.”
Ford didn’t specify if he would legislate workers back to schools in the event of a stoppage.
CUPE is set to continue to bargain with the government Friday, and the union says the talks will be key in determining their next steps.
