Wear Red4Ed
Wear Red4Ed – Every Monday!
ETFO Thames Valley Teacher Local members are encouraged to wear red every Monday in solidarity with our colleagues in Alberta, who are currently on strike.
Across Alberta, more than 51,000 teachers represented by the Alberta Teachers’ Association have walked off the job after rejecting a contract that failed to address pressing issues in schools — including overcrowded classrooms, inadequate supports for students with complex needs, and fair compensation for educators. The strike, which began in early October, has impacted over 750,000 students across the province.
Alberta educators are standing up for better working and learning conditions — and their fight echoes many of the same challenges teachers face across the country. By wearing red, we stand shoulder to shoulder with them, showing our collective commitment to respect for educators, support for students, and investment in public education. Their fight is our fight!
