B.C. teachers defiant as public schools reopen after three day strike

VANCOUVER - Public school teachers in British Columbia head back to class today as they wrap up a legal, three day strike.

But they return in a defiant mood because the union is still without a contract and teachers face pending legislation that could strip them of the right to further job action.

B.C. Teachers' Federation president Susan Lambert says her 41,000 members are determined to resist Bill 22 in the days leading up to its passage by Premier Christy Clark's Liberal government.

The legislation will impose a cooling off period and hefty fines on further strikes or protests such as teacher's ongoing refusal of administrative duties, including filling out report cards.

Lambert says members are being consulted about how to continue the battle after Bill 22 is passed and a decision on further action will be up to them.

In the meantime, spring break begins in many school districts across B.C. on Monday, but those still in session could see another one-day walkout before the legislation becomes law.
