I’ll give government credit for the first three initiatives listed… but let’s all check our notes on the commitment to hire an additional 500 teachers.

This was an arbitrated decision that would have never become reality without teachers’ collective action.

[Scott Moe @PremierScottMoe]

Saskatchewan schools are giving our students their best start.

✅ 60+ new or replacement schools built across the province with 26 more on the way

✅ Specialized support classrooms expanding to 200+ schools, starting with 50 this year

✅ $2M boost for K–3 reading programs to build strong foundational skills

✅ 500 new teachers to address classroom complexity and support every student

We’re making sure every student in Saskatchewan has the tools to learn, grow, and thrive.

💬 “Teachers remain deeply committed to their students. But if we don’t address systemic issues …attrition rates will continue to rise, and students will suffer the greatest cost of government inaction.” – Clint Johnston, @CTFFCEpresident

The Spring 2025 survey underscores an ongoing crisis in teacher retention, while reaffirming that what keeps educators committed is clear: their students.

For decades, Canada’s unions fought for anti-scab legislation. As of June 20, workers will finally be protected from replacement during strikes and lockouts.

Yesterday, we celebrated that victory with the workers and leaders who helped make it real. What a proud moment✊ #canlab
