This is the final step in a painful 5-year journey. The CCAA process caused deep harm to Laurentian faculty, staff, and Sudbury. Thanks to strong advocacy, inappropriate corporate restructuring can no longer be used at public universities sudbury.com/local-news/five-…

Precariously employed contract faculty teach almost 50% of university courses in Ontario with little job security or institutional support. OCUFA is holding a Social Media Day of Action to call for fair, stable working conditions for contract faculty. tinyurl.com/ybanf5yp

Ontario’s post-secondary education system is facing a breaking point. Rather than implementing actionable solutions, Bill 33 is an anti-democratic threat to university autonomy. It would give the government sweeping control while putting students and faculty at risk.

Ontario universities are welcoming more students than ever—but revenues aren’t keeping pace. Thank you to @davidcommon at CBC Metro Morning for highlighting this critical issue.

OCUFA President Nigmendra Narain joined #ONPSE labour & student allies to share our message: Strong universities and colleges mean strong communities. In the midst of the economic uncertainty created by tariffs, we need to expand, not limit access to #ONPSE.

Solidarity with @WLUFA Contract Faculty who are asking @LaurierPres for #fairness4cf and to negotiate over losses from Bill 124. The @OFL coalition of over 40 unions led to Bill 124 being deemed unconstitutional. We also call on @fordnation to properly fund #ONPSE #ONpoli #ONlab
Show solidarity with @WLUFA, seeking a remedy for wages lost under Bill 124. Bill 124 was ruled unconstitutional last year in Ontario. It stripped Contract Faculty and many others of their bargaining rights. Employers must bargain in good faith. #Fairness4cf @OCUFA @CAUT_ACPPU

Every $1 in universities CREATES $1.40 in return according to Conference Board of Canada ... that is a 40% Return-on-Investment. Read more at @OCUFA ocufa.on.ca 👏 @OntarioU
There’s a place where we build tomorrow. When you invest in Ontario universities, you invest in Ontario’s industries, communities and future.

“The reality is, there are less & less resources at the university-level,” says OCUFA President Nigmendra Narain. “So, we have...programs being cut, and the students that remain in the system, they’ve got bigger classes..." Read the full article here: thelocal.to/ontario-post-sec…

Western and Huron community members including faculty, staff, & students braved a winter storm to engage in a fruitful discussion with London North Centre candidates on how they plan to address the crisis facing our sector. #ONPSE issues matter to our communities #ONelxn #ONpoli
Thanks to all who joined the LNC Candidates’ Town Hall at @WesternU! We raised key issues like underfunding, working conditions, and the future of universities. Let’s keep the conversation going! #onpse #onpoli @OCUFA
