NSTU wants to go to court; NSGEU to arbitration

The Teachers Union will be launching a Charter of Rights challenge to the McNeil Government’s Bill 75 which imposed a contract on them.

Meanwhile, the NSGEU is filing for arbitration in regards to Civil Service bargaining. President Jason MacLean says the union went to conciliation with government in April but it hasn’t helped and they’re at an impasse.

Election – Crnogorac

A woman who was rejected by the Tories as a candidate isn’t going away.

Jad Crnogorac will continue to run in Dartmouth South saying she’s been treated unfairly by the Conservative Party and leader Jamie Ballie. She’s meeting with Elections Nova Scotia to see if she can proceed as an independant candidate.  Since nominations have closed, her name will still be on the ballotts as a Progressive Conservative.
