The Ontario Teachers' Federation (OTF; French: Fédération des enseignantes et des enseignants de l’Ontario, FEO) is the professional body representing over 160,000 teachers in Ontario's publicly funded schools.[1] It operates the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan (OTTP), which in 2021, was Canada's largest single-profession pension plan, with around $200 billion in managed assets.[2] OTF was established by the Teaching Profession Act of 1944. The four Ontario teacher federations are OTF affiliates: the Association des enseignantes et des enseignants franco-ontariens (AEFO), the Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO); the Ontario English Catholic Teachers' Association (OECTA); and the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF). All teachers in Ontario's publicly funded schools belong to one of the affiliates and to OTF.
