Province orders striking college instructors back to work

It’s back to work today for Ontario’s college faculty after a special weekend sitting legislation passed on Sunday forcing the end to the college strike.  Students will be back in the classroom on Tuesday but will have to cut their Holiday break short.   The province says students facing financial pressure because of the longer semester will be able to apply for assistance.   The colleges and the union representing faculty failed to reach an agreement and teachers voted overwhelmingly late last week to reject an offer, forcing the government to step in.   The dispute now heads to mediation-arbitration.
