Teachers in Vaudreuil staged a protest Friday morning against lagging contract talks.

This is a professional development day for the Lester B. Pearson board, so students were not affected.

Teachers are upset with the slow pace of contract talks and the cuts school boards are making to administrative and support staff.

Lester B. Pearson teachers will be holding a strike vote next Wednesday.

Members of the Riverside School Board voted this week to hold six days of strike action starting Sept. 30.
