ATA, as the professional organization of teachers, advances public education, supports teachers’ professional practice and advocates for its members. www.teachers.ab.ca
When Bill 2 forced teachers back to work, it stripped away their charter rights—including the freedom to assemble & to associate. When one group’s rights are overridden, everyone should pay attention. Access the guide to the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms here: abteach.cc/CharterRights
Bill 2 used the notwithstanding clause to override workers’ rights. Bill 25 reaches further into what happens in classrooms. Different laws. Same pattern of overreach. Head over to www.progressnotpromises.ca and add your name to the growing list of Albertans that stand with teachers.
