Jinny Sims says goodbye

It's "Goodbye for now" as the head of the BC Teachers' Federation makes way for a new President.

Jinny Sims has reached the end of her term and she won't be running again.

In her final keynote address to the Union, Sims thanked teachers for their support over the years.

She says being the BCTF President is an honour and a privilege, but it's time to move on, "I've done my three years. I've enjoyed it all and now it's someone else's turn, and I'm not going away. I'll still be here as past President, I'm still here as the Vice-President of the Canadian Teachers' Federation and my activism is not going to stop. It's just going to take on a different form."
