Alberta teachers strike notice to take effect Oct. 6

The move comes after months of stalled negotiations with the province, said Jason Schilling, president of the Alberta Teachers’ Association. 

More than 51,000 teachers in Alberta will strike starting Oct. 6 if an agreement is not reached before then. It comes after months of stalled negotiations with the province, said Jason Schilling, president of the Alberta Teachers' Association on Wednesday. 

More to come.
