Students in Nova Scotia have gotten an extended holiday break because of the latest COVID variant. It started a week early with staffing challenges because of mandatory quarantining and positive cases. And they decided to push ahead the start date to next Monday, January 10th. But the Nova Scotia Teacher's Union is hoping government will rethink that. President Paul Wozney says they would like to see remote learning put in place until they can make it safer for staff and students. And while Wozney acknowledges there will be some people accusing them of complaining needlessly, he says the evidence backs up their position.
