Case No 2405 (Canada) - Complaint date: 31-JAN-05

Education International (EI) on behalf of the Canadian Teachers’ Federation (CTF) and the British Columbia Teachers’ Federation (BCTF)

Allegations

The complainant organization alleges that the Government, in order to re-impose an arbitration decision that had been overturned by the British Columbia Supreme Court, has adopted unilaterally and without any consultation with social partners, retroactive legislation (Bill No. 19/2004) that modifies or eliminates numerous provisions from freely negotiated collective agreements in the education sector. These actions deprive teachers of lawful means to promote and defend their occupational interests, and undermine the right of the complainant organizations to act as bargaining agent for their members
