TORONTO, Ont. – The Liberal government’s attempts to impose a two-year wage freeze on Ontario teachers is leading to more disruptions for students in public schools.
   
The Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation says its 60,000 members will step up their protest against Bill 115 by withdrawing from extra curricular and sports activities starting next Monday.
   
Union president Ken Coran says the high school teachers will not join their counterparts in elementary schools who plan one-day rotating strikes.
   
Coran says the Liberals need to repeal the controversial legislation that allows the government to impose a contract on teachers if it wants them to accept new deals.
   
He says the union has always been willing to accept a wage freeze, but feels the legislation strongly infringes on their right to collective bargaining.
    Education Minister Laurel Broten says she will use the powers under the legislation to stop any strike actions once the threats turn into reality.
