Terry Fox run & teachers

According to Tuesday’s PG Citizen:

…Prince George and District Teachers Association president Matt Pearce said Thursday that [ongoing job action] won’t stop teachers from helping to organize the runs.

“We don’t have any intention of [impacting] extracurricular activities like the Terry Fox Run,” Pearce said.

Pearce said the only type of fundraising teachers won’t participate in is efforts to specifically raise money for schools.

“A lot of the fundraising that teachers have taken on is to support a system that’s no longer funded to meet those needs anymore,” he said. “For outside things like raising money for charities and food banks and things like that, those activities are going to continue.”
