Thread: As we wrangle with administration over the possibility of an arbitrated settlement, some colleagues may be asking why we continue to picket, poll, and otherwise pressure the government. Can't we just focus on admin now? they ask. 1/

These brave early career researchers at #Umanitoba have outlined their concerns with recruitment and retention in this compelling open letter. In #solidarity with #UMFA_FAUM!

Michael Benarroch: Listen to students! #umfa2021

Nice to see that the CAG conference is in Regina next year! #CAG_2022

This letter perfectly captures why so many UMFA members are angry and disheartened by the lack of respect we feel from our employer! #umfaSTRONG #Solidarity #uManitoba

This letter really nicely captures our concern and gratitude for students related to the strike. Administration can help students and end the strike this week if they are willing to negotiate. To actually negotiate. #umfa2021

We're facing the same issue in Manitoba⚡️ “‘We’re on the brink of collapse.’ What eight Ontario nurses have to say on the state of a profession in crisis” by Toronto Star x.com/i/events/14650…

Here’s a parting pic of the @supportingumfa crew, who took their demands to the source of the mandate and didn’t back down

The UM admin claims that it has the best interests of students at heart. But days are passing, and it refuses to make concessions to reach a fair deal with UMFA that would see students and faculty back in the classroom. #umfa2021 #umfaSTRONG

A thoughtful editorial from the #umanitoba student newspaper. Thank you for your support of faculty, instructors, and librarians! #UMFA_FAUM #fairdeal

We are facing the same issues the world over! The University of Manitoba has also increased salaries for top admin over the last 5 years. When will UM President value students, staff, and profs over profit? #umfastrike #uManitoba #umfaSTRONG #umfa2021 #Solidarity

A thoughtful request for administration to negotiate in good faith by meeting somewhere in the middle. Members of UMFA who are on strike are hoping for this and increasingly frustrated and angry that we're not seeing it from our employer University of Manitoba #mbpoli #umfa2021 #umfastrike

Getting ready for a #fairdeal #umfa2021 #umfastrike #umfaSTRONG

Dear students, while we await the ratification vote, I want to reiterate how grateful we are for your support and how hard we know this has been on you. I also want you to know that we will all do our best to support the transition back to classes 1/2
