1993
On the bargaining front, the Korbin Commission was appointed to look into the structure of negotiations with provincial public-sector employees. In 1993, the commission reported that many alleged that the settlements achieved by “powerful local teachers’ associations acting in concert with a more powerful central teachers’ federation” between 1988 and 1991 set the bar for other public sector unions.
Local 99 was set up to house private sector post-secondary institutions:
