Members of Ontario’s legislature are set to debate a bill that would impose a contract on education workers and ban them from striking.
The Progressive Conservative government has ordered the legislature back at 5 a.m. Tuesday in order to speed up passage of the bill.
The legislation comes after the Canadian Union of Public Employees said its 55-thousand education worker members would start a full strike on Friday.
Despite the legislation, CUPE says it will stage a walkout on Friday, though it’s not clear if that would be for more than one day.
