In the new year, the courts will rule on the remedy the B.C. Liberal government will have to comply with, in response to a previous ruling that its elimination of class size and composition provisions in teacher contracts was unconstitutional.
I believe the government will be required to return these provisions, and restore the services that have been cut from public schools.
Instead, the B.C. Liberal government will choose to appeal the ruling, and delay yet again the much-needed return of funding to public schools in this province.
Murray Helmer is the president of the Cariboo Chilcotin Teachers’ Association.
