WATCH LIVE ONTARIO CUPE STRIKE UPDATE: CUPE press conference unexpectedly delayed

In a press conference on Monday morning at Queen’s Park in Toronto, Premier Doug Ford says as a gesture of “good faith” the government is willing to rescind the legislation, if Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) calls off the strike.

Mark Hancock, national president of CUPE, will be joined by fellow labour leaders to discuss the ongoing strike action by Ontario’s education workers and the province’s back-to-work legislation.
