For Jacqueline Comeau, September seems to be returning. Because of the protracted Quebec teachers’ strike, which started in November, her daughter has been out from school for weeks. Her daughter will have some catching up to do when lessons resume. Comeau remarked, “It will take some time to readjust.” “Everything will be brand-new once more. They may miss out on some of the lessons they would have gained during the strike since it would take longer.” The Fédération Autonome de l’Enseignement, or FAE, was the only union to go on an indefinite strike, which caused 800 schools to close for 22 days. The “common front,” a separate negotiation bloc that represents teachers in other institutions, was responsible for the 11-day closure of those schools.
