Tell SMU admin what you think about the fact that PT Profs at SMU earn less than minimum wage and have been forced to the picket line, impacting students' degrees! @caut.bsky.social @ansut.bsky.social Solidarity with @cupe3912.bsky.social SMU! win.newmode.net/canadianasso...

SMUFU Members - Please join us for our Annual General Meeting this Friday, October 31/25 – 10:00 am – 12 Noon; Room - SB160. This will be a hybrid meeting. An Agenda and Zoom link have been forwarded to your inbox. We look forward to seeing you!

I stand with @cupe3912.bsky.social MSVU and SMU Part-Time Academic Staff. Calling on @smuhalifax.bsky.social and @msvuhalifax.bsky.social to give them a fair deal now! @msvufa.bsky.social @smufu.bsky.social

In solidarity with @cupe3912.bsky.social SMU @ansut.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social @cautdefencefund.bsky.social

Sending solidarity with our @cupe3912.bsky.social colleagues. They deserve fair wages. They deserve to be respected by their employers. We stand with you, colleagues! @caut.bsky.social @cautdefencefund.bsky.social @ansut.bsky.social

Today we honour survivors of residential schools, their families, and the communities forever impacted. Reconciliation lives in what we teach, collect, and research. We must choose to challenge colonial narratives, and make space for Indigenous voices and ways of knowing.

surveillance and censorship are not about safety. they're about control.

Let's support our colleagues at the University of Lethbridge: sign this letter to send the message to their administrators that they deserve a #fairdealnow #ULFA @caut.bsky.social win.newmode.net/canadianasso...

Solidarity with @cupe3912.bsky.social

Congratulations to the @dalfaculty.bsky.social for their steadfast work to secure a fair deal for their members. We were proud to stand beside you every step of the way. Let's hope that the nonsense that was wrought upon you will never be witnessed again.

It's been almost four weeks since the @dalhousieu.bsky.social lockout of DFA faculty began. Progress has been made. Now, it's time for President Brooks to step in and get the Board to accept what is a fair and reasonable offer by the DFA. Let's get on with the term. #keepdalstrong

Solidarity March with @dalfaculty.bsky.social We are united to #KeepDalStrong

There's a #LetHimCook vibe going on with @dalfaculty.bsky.social

Save The Date! SMUFU AGM will be held from 10-noon on Friday, October 31 (see your SMU emails for more details). The significance of the date is not lost on us, and therefore CANDY 👏WILL👏BE👏PROVIDED👏

The @dalhousieu.bsky.social Board of Governors is NOT delivering on their mandate. These are a few of the more obvious areas in which they are failing the university community. What will they do to clean up this mess they have created? #KeeDalStrong

@dalfaculty.bsky.social know how to hold a solidarity rally! @caut.bsky.social members from across the country; $1M donation from CAUT Defence Fund and the DFA letter to the BOG taped to the doors (locked, of course) Instead of teaching and research this will count as service to the profession!

The Dalhousie Student Union is throwing its support behind the locked-out Dalhousie Faculty Association.

Hold the date! SMUFU Whine (oops Wine) and Cheese Thursday, October 16 4-6 SB Lounge

Important message from @dalfaculty.bsky.social immediac.blob.core.windows.net/dfa2021/2025... We stand with you in solidarity and will be at the rally tomorrow. #KeepDalStrong

Tell SMU that PT Faculty and TAs need a fair deal now! Send a letter to SMU at win.newmode.net/canadianasso... #cdnpse #canlab #FairDealNow @ansut.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social @smufu.bsky.social

Wishing all faculty, librarians, staff and students a Happy First Day back tmrw! #SMUStrong

The one-sided and propaganda-style emails going out to all @dalhousie.bsky.social students and staff (except the @dalfaculty.bsky.social ) is so short sighted. How about the Uni ‘leaders’ communicate with the DFA and settle this properly?! #KeepDalStrong

And....we are officially without a contract. Bargaining starts tomorrow. Godspeed Team SMUFU.

"Daylight is the Best Disinfectant" #KeepDalStrong

🚨 This seems all too familiar to locked out @dalfaculty.bsky.social members 👇 Universities have lost their way, but cost-cutting and consultants are not the answer theconversation.com/universities... #keepdalstrong @dalhousieu.bsky.social board of governors has certainly lost its way!! 😡

This Labour Day, the CAUT Journal is proud to release its newest issue, Seeing Equity as Labour Justice. As stated in its introduction: “As our academic union struggles have repeatedly shown, equity gains are collective gains, benefiting all of us in the long run.” Read more: journal.caut.ca

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. #keepdalstrong

The @dalhousieu.bsky.social Board of Governors' "offer" for interest arbitration won't resolve this. It's just creating further delays. Bargaining on the issues important to our members is required. Stop with the stunts, let's get back to the table and talk. It's the only way to #KeepDalStrong

The kids are ok. #KeepDalStrong www.reddit.com/r/Dalhousie/...

We are in solidarity with our colleagues at @dalfaculty.bsky.social Your fight is our fight. And a word for the SMU BOG Exec: this is a good learning lesson in how not to work with the unions. We hope you're taking notes.

Join us this Friday in front of the @dalhousieu.bsky.social Killam Library for our rally! Students are arriving this week, let's stand together and show them that we care about saving their Fall term from this reckless Board behaviour! #Keepdalstrong @ansut.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social

Great visualization of smoke rolling into HRM today. Close your windows, pop on a mask if you’re outside for extended periods today. firesmoke.ca/forecasts/cu...

The new CBU med school is dependent on Dal’s Faculty of Medicine & our department for training and preparation of anatomical materials. We are locked out, but nary a mention how the lockout affects students starting at CBU. #keepdalstrong

We support our colleagues at l'APPUSB and encourage the BOG and President to give them a fair deal now! Click here to sign a letter of support: www.appusb.ca/i-support-ap...

SMUFU has just made a 2nd $1000 donation to @dalfaculty.bsky.social This unprecedented action of a hostile employer, eroding every pillar of collegial governance, will be met with the resolve and solidarity of the academic labour movement across the nation. #SolidarityForever #KeepDalStrong

FYI @dalhousie.bsky.social while the BOG rubs their hands together thinking of the $$ they're saving: You haven't considered the unintended consequences of long-term damage to collegial governance, morale and the inevitable faculty uptick with all things @dalfaculty.bsky.social #KeepDalStrong

Unions representing 200,000 (!) workers showed up to support @dalfaculty.bsky.social Labour Union solidarity is STRONG in Halifax! @dalhousie.bsky.social ... we will keep showing up as long as it takes for our colleagues to get back to the bargaining table and secure a fair deal. #KeepDalStrong

Not played well at all, @dalhousie.bsky.social. You will not break @dalfaculty.bsky.social down. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Solidarity with the Dalhousie Faculty Association who are locked out by the admin. Stay strong. @caut.bsky.social

Looking forward to showing up on @dalhousie.bsky.social campus today in support of our @dalfaculty.bsky.social colleagues who have been locked out. The @cautdefencefund.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social #flyingpickets are here and unions from across the region are en route! #KeepDalStrong #Solidarity

Lockout @dalhousieu.bsky.social covered in the Globe and Mail. Seems like the whole country is watching the results of the Board's reckless decisions. #KeepDalStrong

All welcome to join DFA's 1st rally in 23 years! In front of the Killam Library, Friday August 22 at 12 noon, half an hour only. See you there! Help us to #KeepDalStrong @ansut.bsky.social @caut.bsky.social @cupe3912.bsky.social @nsgeu.bsky.social

As someone who does research with trans minors in Canada, I worry about my uni’s contact with Microsoft. Research participants email me to book interviews and those notes live in the archive (which is housed in the US). Data sovereignty should be our goal in Canada.
