DID YOU GET the Speaker THIS WEEK? THE SPEAKER’S WEEKEND EDITION Visit us on eekenderFRIDAY, JANUARY 17, 2020 WVol. 19 – No. 7 ON THE STREET Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation mem- - bers and supporters picketed outside Timiskaming District Secondary on January 15. The federation has staged a series of ro tating one-day strikes to press for a resolution of province-wide bargaining issues. The job action reached Temiskaming this week, prompting the region’s English public and French Catholic school boards to close all their schools for the day. English Catholic schools in the region will shut down January 21 for a province-wide, one-day walkout by the Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association. The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario has said its members will begin rotating one-day strikes next week if progress isn’t made in negotiations.
