Act Now: Stand Up for a Fair Deal for LUFA
Join me in calling on the Laurentian University Board of Governors to bargain a fair deal and bargain in good faith with LUFA.
Laurentian Faculty have gone above and beyond for their community and they deserve a fair contract NOW!
Email the Laurentian Board of Governors telling them to invest in Laurentian and its faculty for a stronger future. Send your letter here: actionnetwork.org/letters/act-...

Very proud of @ontariotechu.bsky.social! We are an exciting, vibrant place to be!
With that said, I hope OTU gets serious about negotiating a new contract with faculty. Let's avoid the same fate as Laurentian and keep OTU's momentum going in a positive direction! Fully behind @uoitfa.bsky.social!

Decisions about academic plans should be made in consultation with those of us who are in the labs and classroom delivering the high-quality education that Ontario Tech has become known for β so why was this issue not brought before OTUβs academic decision makers at Januaryβs Academic Council?

This is the second time this year that a strategic update was moved behind closed doors. We all know that issues can emerge when University Governors make decisions in isolation, without including the University's biggest stakeholders: its faculty, staff and students.

Ontario Tech's Board of Governors is shutting the community out of important conversations regarding Enrolment and the Universityβs Differentiated Growth Agenda β plans stemming from this conversation could directly impact our teaching and learning conditions.

My thoughts go out to LU Faculty; I hope they can come to a swift, beneficial resolution. I feel for the students who will be disrupted. A strike is always a last resort, but often there is no other choice.
I'm hopeful OTU can avoid the same fate. I'm 100% behind our awesome Faculty Association!

MUN faculty, students concerned about upcoming program cuts | CBC News
Memorial University has reported a drop in enrolment for the second year in a row, leaving faculty and students worried about the university's future.
MUN plays a crucial role in our province. It has a special obligation to the people of this province.
That obligation can't be met without proper funding.
We stand in solidarity with the students, faculty, and staff who are fighting to protect this vital institution.

Illustration of a magnifying glass above text that reads "Take action now! Tell the Prime Minister not to cut science and research funding in the Budget on November 4."
In Canada, proposed cuts of 15% across the federal government would have a dramatic effect on already globally decimated research & science.
Join Canada's research and science community and tell PM Mark Carney to preserve the funding promised in 2024.
