The Alberta government and the teachers’ union have reached a tentative agreement.
The Alberta Teachers’ Association and the finance minister said Wednesday morning the two parties reached a Memorandum of Agreement as next month’s strike deadline neared.
“Last Friday, the Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) made an offer to the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA),” Minister of Finance Nate Horner said in a statement.
“Both parties have agreed to form a tentative agreement based on shared priorities and members will vote on the tentative agreement in the coming days.”
Teachers will vote from Saturday until Monday, the ATA said.
The agreement comes about two weeks before teachers were slated to strike on October 6 if an agreement was not reached.
