The problem they are trying to solve is offering more stable online learning options. Methinks it may have been spurred on by this whole "global pandemic" situation.

The article explains that teachers are primarily unhappy because one of the options would involve moving online education to a for-profit corporation, which would not only ostensibly divert funds from public education, but also operate without the oversight of the pub ed system.

You're right that that's what the president of one union said.

But according to the article, the option is for it to move to TVO/TFO - a crown corporation that answers to the ministry of education and is non-profit.
