Accepting binding interest arbitration now would mean surrendering the right to strike and relinquishing control over the bargaining process. It's not the right time for binding interest arbitration. Watch this short video to learn more! Special thanks to Local 110. #Solidarity

3/4 of faculty are non-full time workers. They do over half the teaching, contract to contract with ++precarity. Employment stability helps provides quality learning for students - better for classrooms & our communities where we live & serve🏡🧡 #TrainingOntariosFuture

College Employer Council College Faculty You bargain in bad faith and leave damaging concessions on the table during mediation and you're 'shocked' that faculty are using the only tool they have at their disposal to fight for a fair contract against an intransigent bargaining agent? Huh.

“Our college system is crumbling – we can’t sit back and let its failed stewards bulldoze education,” said Michelle Arbour, acting chair of the faculty bargaining team. “Our basic demands are an antidote, aimed at protecting Colleges as places of education, not cash-grabs.”

Unfortunately, college faculty have little say in the system, but we have been warning for years about the dangers of overreliance on international students. The CEC/Colleges have been terrible stewards of the system & the prov. gov't has been a disaster. thestar.com/opinion/contri…

A signed card during bargaining is extremely important. Already signed up? Great! Make sure to update any changes to your personal information such as address and banking details. You can do this through the OPSEU/SEFPO member portal.

"Three-quarters of all faculty in the college system are precarious, and do the majority of the teaching in the system...Over the last 10 years, we’ve added almost 100,000 students, but we’ve only added 500 full-time faculty.” #OntEd #OnLab theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show: They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.” Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag… Made in Nicaragua. They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee. Legendary.
