Almost 88 per cent of the school boards in the pro- vince voted against the proposal last week, the employers association said. Rowe said the B.C, Teachers’ Federation (BCTF), which struck the deal with the provincial govermment at the end of last month, has rejected going back to the bargaining table to redefine the agree- ment. The BCTF wants educa- tion minister Paul Ramsey to seal the deal —- which in- cluded $150 million over three years for 1,200 new teachers — as soon as pos- sible. “The minister will bave to legislate the deal,’’ said Rowe, ‘‘The union won't see its contracts stripped bs + a Fare applies to Tuesday and Wednesday travel only, » ’ Fare is one-way, some restrictions apply, AEROPLAN cc) e . i ® ¥ " : w .

According to Charles Hingston of the B.C. Public School Employers Associa- tion, trustees voted against the agreement because the B.C. government and the teachers’ union worked out the deal without their in- volvement, He also said that because the contract called for class size restrictions for kinder- garten to Grade 3 over three years, it eliminated boards’ flexibility. Only four school boards in the province voled for the proposed contract, while 56 rejected it. * One person in three has an allergy severe enough to require a doctors attention. © The EPA rates Indoor Air Pallution as our #1 environmental problem. « Energy efficient homes and buildings trap pollution Inside. © Ventilation and filtration systems are inefficient.
