High school teachers are being urged to support local NDP candidates.
The President of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation Harvey Bischof and OSSTF's President of District 22 Lisa Etienne are throwing support behind the NDP candidates from Niagara Falls and Niagara Centre for the June 7th election.
In a release the pair urge members to go orange.
"OSSTF/FEESO members are excited to see the significant alignment between our vision for publicly funded education in Ontario, as found in our education platform, and the priorities identified in the NDP election platform," Bischof says via a release. "Wayne Gates and Jeff Burch are promoting the kind of responsible, supportive approach to public services that my members can get behind. This stands in stark contrast to the threat that a Doug Ford government would pose to the work my members do on behalf of students from JK to university."
Ontarians head to the polls on June 7th.
