We would like to start a petition regarding Bill 115, a new legislation that freezes teacher’s wages for two years, cuts sick days in half (and ends their ability to band sick days) and band striking for two years. This petition defends the constitutional rights of teachers. This is a petition that has been started by the student body of Stephen Lewis Secondary School in Vaughan, Ontario. By signing this petition, this means that Bill 115 should be retracted. We believe that our teacher’s rights should not be compromised for financial or political reasons. We all agreed that we need extra-curricular activities and will not stand for political non-sense. Many student come to school and want to be a part of something special, it could mean joining sport teams or simply joining a club. We are not asking for something irrational, all we are asking for is teachers rights that can provide us with an enjoyable high school experience. We student are directly affected and we will not stand by and watch as our activities along with our teachers rights are revoked by Bill 115.  Some of us students are in their last year of high school and we should have the right to get a full high school experience. What is school without extra-curricular. WHO’S IN? LET’S MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND STAND FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE IN!!!!!!

So tired of the govt treating educators like they are nothing. They do way more than just lecture from a textbook.

This is ridiculous. My coach puts in so many extra hours and now they want to strip his rights? Not okay.

My teachers are the only reason I actually want to come to school. This bill is completely unfair and punishes the staff for no reason.

Keep politics out of the classroom. Teachers deserve better than this.
