Ontario Colleges Strike

A walkout looms now that talks aimed at forging a new contract for Ontario's nine-thousand community college teachers have broken off.

OP-SEU says the breakdown leaves it no choice but to plan for a strike vote on January 13th.

The union says it had modified its bargaining position, but says college negotiators insisted OP-
SEU pull 69 demands off the table.

No further talks are planned.

OPSEU is the union for Confederation College staff in Kenora, and the rest of its campuses in Northwestern Ontario.
