Rather than continue to play games, @McGillPresident, @ProvostManfredi, @F_Labeau, & Francis Desjardins could simply sit down and *really* (not pretend) bargain with us if they cared about the fall 2024 @LawMcGill semester. #NoContractNoCourses

We view attending Congress on @mcgillu grounds as crossing a picket line. Some in precarious financial situations may have to attend in order to have expenses covered. If so, we ask that you attend for as short a period as possible & speak out against @federation_hss & McGill.

Great interview this morning @CBCLondon with @MichaelLynk5 on the very problematic nature of #onpoli Bill 166 & how it erodes the important culture of institutional autonomy & #AcademicFreedom that underpins #cdnpse. Worth a listen once the show is online. @OCUFA @JillDunlop1

F = fail, as in failing students, faculty, researchers, universities; but it's a choice: F = fund, as in funding world-class publicly-funded public universities and F = future, as in give our students, our next generation of Ontarians a Bright Future! @OCUFA

The Ford government is failing our students by refusing to fully fund mental health and special education supports. Our children need supports, not funding cuts. #onted #onpoli

#FairEmploymentWeek Fact: Workers across the province are fighting for fairness and job security. Faculty across #Ont are demanding the same thing: job security, benefits, and equal pay for equal work. Join the movement for #fairness4cf at ocufa.on.ca/fairness #ONPSE #ONLAB
