1000 faculty members have been locked out of @dalhousieu.bsky.social since Aug 18. That means 90% of classes WILL NOT start next week. The Board of Governors needs to come back to the table and stop playing with the future of our students.

Faculty locked out Aug 20. We have heard nothing from @dalhousieu.bsky.social - we WANT to BARGAIN, our members WANT to WORK! Where is the Board? Students start move in Aug 28. Time for the Board to take this seriously and work with us #KeepDalStrong

Here’s where we stand:

My union moved on salary and was willing to talk: Dal mgmnt was not interested

My union offered to find ways to save money: Mgmnt said no.

My union wanted to work together to build new child care: Mgmnt didn’t care.

Let’s #KeepDalStrong, we said. No, they replied.
