Teacher's strike Day 3

It's the third day of the teacher's strike. Daybreak's George Bkaer marches with Pricne Rupert teacher Nick Adey and talks about the future of education...

And...

As teachers continue to march outside schools in northern BC, it highlights a situation many Canadians are familiar with:
Public school teachers and their employers, in a conflict over contracts.
And according to a book on the verge of being published....it's a situation many provinces in Canada have struggled with.
Sara Slinn is the co-editor of "Dynamic Negotiation: Teacher Labour Relations in Canadian Elementary and Secondary Education"
She's an associate professor at the Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto.
