Teachers Protest Bill 75 Outside Province House

Hundreds of teachers and their supporters are gathered outside Province House in Halifax at this hour, while MLA’s are going through Bill 75, clause by clause inside.

 

The protest went on overnight night while the Legislature sat to deal with the legislation to impose a contract on teachers.

 

Teachers plan to hold a mass rally outside the building at noon.

 

The Teachers Union local says teachers from Cape Breton are being bused to Halifax for the event.

 

The Legislature is due to sit until at least 5:00 this evening as it deals with Bill 75.
