This is good news!

Vancouver Sun News Alert:

The B.C. government infringed teachers' rights when it passed a law in 2001 ending their ability to negotiate class size and class composition, B.C. Supreme Court has ruled. Justice Susan Griffin said most, but not all, of the challenged legislation is unconstitutional and invalid because it violated teachers' rights to associate and engage in collective bargaining. She gave the government 12 months to make changes.
