British Columbia Teachers’ Federation v. British Columbia, 2011 BCSC 469
Aug 17, 2021
After a long, challenging legal battle, the B.C. Supreme Court found that the B.C. Government unjustifiably breached teachers constitutionally protected freedom of association when it stripped class size and composition provisions and other provisions governing teacher working conditions and prohibited bargaining on those subject matters in the future.
John Rogers and Steven Rogers represented the BCTF in this important victory for B.C. teachers and all Canadian workers, along with Diane MacDonald, in-house counsel for the BCTF.
