PAGE 30. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1998. Huron teacher vice-president of new federation Florence Keillor, a teacher with the Avon Maitland District School board, was elected Aug. 20 as Vice-President of the new Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO). Keillor's last elected position was as First Vice- President of the Federation of Women Teachers' Associations of Ontario (1997-1998). The election took place at ETFO's first annual meeting in Toronto. In her address to the 800 delegates and alternates attending ETFO's first annual meeting in Toronto, Keillor said, "The future of Ontario's children depends in large measure on the conditions under which they learn and the conditions under which we teach. The government of Premier Mike Harris has its own ideas about what is best for us and for Ontario's children. But governments change, and at this annual meeting, Ontario's elementary public school teachers have pledged to fight the Tories in the next provincial election." Born in St. John's, NF, where she attended Prince of Wales College and Memorial University, Keillor graduated with an honours BA and a BEd. She began her teaching career in Etobicoke and in 1977 moved to Huron County, where she taught core French to Grades 1 through 8, and also served three years as French co-ordinator. Keillor has served as president and collective bargaining ;representative of the Huron Women Teachers' Association. A director of FWTAO since 1989, she has served as treasurer and second vice-president. A Governor of the Ontario Teachers' Federation (OTF) since1994, Keillor will be awarded an OTF Fellowship in the umbrella organization at the OTF annual meeting this August. The ETFO represents 70,000 teachers, occasional teachers and education workers who were formerly members of FWTAO and the Ontario Public School Teachers' Federation (OPSTF). Both FWTAO and OPSTF were retired, effective July 1, 1998.
