Just one year after the Supreme Court of Canada decision to restore bargaining rights to the British Columbia Teachers Federation, Glen Hansman -President of the BCTF, sits with Sussanne and Carlos to unpack the ripple effects 16 years of BC Liberal governments have had on the public education system in BC, how School Districts are handling the current teacher shortages, the importance of SOGI education in High Schools and what the future may look like as education sector unions get ready to bargain with a new Provincial Government.
Sussanne spends the afternoon hanging out with Lisa Langevin from IBEW 213 talking all things “women in trades”, Lisa sits as an executive member with Build Together BC where she promotes, supports and mentors women in the skilled construction trades.
