The resolution of that labor complaint was the consent order from the Labor Board that says there are apparently only 3 outstanding items.



Shortly after that labor board meeting, the head of the ATA negotiating team resigned.



My two cents? The ATA got outmaneuvered by the government, and are now boxed in. A vote by the union to turn down the proposal gives them the ammunition to continue negotiating for improved classroom supports, complexity issues, etc.
Oh okay, so not ratifying this deal will reopen the negotiations outside of the 3 BS issues from the labour board? If that's the case this makes sense to me
