I am going to eat crow while it is young and tender before it is old and tough. I apologize to @albertateachers.bsky.social for my previous posts. I was taught a valuable lesson on bargaining and have been enlightened to my erroneous beliefs.

At this moment I am embarrassed to have the @albertateachers.bsky.social representing me as my union.

@albertateachers.bsky.social are you seriously bringing the almost same offer we rejected in May back to us?
Every member of the executive needs to resign immediately!
We have caved again and again.
Your union members gave you a mandate. You did nothing but show how weak you all are.
