No teachers have lost any rights. Nothing is stopping them from staying on strike. If they disagree and are principled they should stay on strike. As far as a fascist state, the constitution was negotiated by elected premiers. They put in a notwithstanding clause in the constitution. This clause can and has been used for labour disputes. The UCP was democratically elected and in negotiating with a union used all the tools in their democratically obtained toolbox. No ones rights have been trampled. Take your 12% raise and be happy, or stay on strike, or move.

Dude you are exactly what is wrong with Alberta. "No rights have been trampled? All the tools were used?" Give me a break, all tools except a fair bargaining process, a democratic bill based on binding arbitration? Maybe even basic human civility and care to consider matching or approaching what other provinces are doing so teachers and students can once again be the best in the world? This could have been over months ago if the province didn't directly refuse to even consider class caps, complexity controls that every other province enjoys. Pretty awful.
The hypocrisy and stink of this province is truly the separatists and freedom loving old boys who only care when it affects their bottom line or some misguided ideal they don't even understand. These people would never put a months salary on the line like the teachers just did to fight for a better classroom, and yes, even wages.
Honestly, how does a person actually travel to Ottawa or camp out on the highway over the carbon tax on one hand and do squat or even cheer this kind of government overstep on the other? "$#^& Trudeau" so very creative. Every single person in this province has just lost whether it is various charter rights for the next number of years or simply having unions busted which will trickle down to everyone.
