Currently many Jr. FLL & FLL Teams in Ontario are in jeopardy due to the potential strike and cancellation of extra curricular activities.
However, it is ONLY the public schools (per my limited understanding) who are going to strike. This means teams could try and team up with teams from the Catholic board schools and/or private schools.
I know (read as: hope) that all teachers who are involved in all FIRST competitions are very disappointed about being forced to stop their teams, but I also know in secret that they are all going to be building robots in dusty, hidden areas of their shops/class rooms!
