The government has made a number of changes to the original draft of the Bill that was first introduced on August 16, 2012.

We are in the process of reviewing the proposed legislation. For background information on the Putting Students First Act, please see our FTR Now of August 20, 2012, “Ontario to Introduce Sweeping Legislation Concerning School Board Bargaining.”
