Alberta teachers’ union files labour complaint, alleges province engaged in ‘bad-faith bargaining’
The Alberta Teachers' Association alleges bad-faith bargaining over 3,000 promised teachers, seeking legal orders to ensure 1,000 net new hires annually beyond the 2025 budget.
- The Alberta Teachers' Association filed an unfair bargaining complaint against the province, accusing it of making misleading claims about hiring new teachers during contract negotiations.
- The government legislated 51,000 teachers back to work at the end of October to end the three-week strike and imposed a collective agreement previously rejected by teachers.
- Premier Danielle Smith's government invoked the notwithstanding clause to override teachers' rights and shield the back-to-work bill from legal challenge, an action the union called 'an abuse of authority that sidesteps democratic accountability.
