The motion arose out of frsrtosfeit by the teach- es about working without a c ontract since Sept. 1, 1973.- the teachers are forbidden by law to strike. The bargaining team for Durham College teachers and those of other, community colleges across the province are laboring under a "a very inadequate bargaining system", said Brad Yourth, president of the Durham teachers.
