Strike votes do not automatically lead to strikes! We can see past the fear-mongering, @CECouncil #BargainingforBetter

[OPSEU Local 562 @OPSEULocal562]

When your #factcheck undermines your own fear-mongering: strike votes do not, in fact, automatically lead to strikes.

[RM Kennedy @RM_Kennedy]

College faculty may have seen the CEC’s recent letter stating they “can not ever agree to” (sp) faculty demands.

They cannot agree to an extra 1.8 minutes per student

They cannot agree to bridge benefits for partial load faculty between terms

Ever. Yup, that’s how they roll.

Well said @bryinlyin !!!

[Aparna Halpe @AparnaHalpe]

@CECouncil's latest proposal for "Voluntary Binding Final Offer Selection Interest Arbitration" plays dice with the lives and livelihoods of Ontario college faculty who kept postsecondary education going through this pandemic. Shame on you!!! #bargainingforbetter

Evaluation factors haven't changed for College Faculty in 36 years. Has anyone tried to grade a research essay with an annotated bibliography in 5 minutes? #bargainingforbetter @ccsai @CentennialEDU

[Aparna Halpe @AparnaHalpe]

Faculty oversight over curriculum is what ensures that our students actually have an education rather than being taught by bots. #bargainingforbetter for our students @ccsai

So many of us are suffering moral injury brought on by our working conditions. We need working conditions that afford us dignity and respect. @CAATfaculty @ONcollegeprof @ContractFaculty @CECouncil

[Lynn Dee Eason🍊 @LDEWawa]

We should all ask College Presidents to end this escalation and find a compromise. Dr. Ron Common, @saultcollege, do you support binding arbitration that would guarantee no labour disruption for faculty and students?

*IMPORTANT UPDATE FROM YOUR CAAT-A BARGAINING TEAM*

Team calls for strike vote to protect members from effects of CEC-requested no-board report.

Listen, the @CECouncil may be lead by @CEC_Graham - the former head of the Dairy Farmers of Ontario - but college faculty are not here to be milked. Update our workload formula (last revised in 1985). Provide stability for contract faculty… #BargainingforBetter

[College Faculty @CAATfaculty]

The faculty team has left the option of voluntary binding arbitration on the table--it is up to the CEC now to demonstrate their stated commitment to labour stability and improved labour relations, rather than forcing their agenda on faculty and students.

@CECouncil @CAATfaculty "In a labour relations context, the parties have the fundamental obligation to bargain." CEC Chairperson
Why have you walked away from the table then? #Bargain4Better #DoBetter #GetBackToTheTable

[RM Kennedy @RM_Kennedy]

Currently, college faculty receive a maximum of 5 minutes and 24 secs per student/week to give feedback to students. We proposed that change to 7 mins 12 secs. Every prof knows that 5 mins is not enough to give our students what they need and deserve. #BargainingforBetter #Onpse

[Losing my Faculty @ProfMartinL]

@CEC_Graham @CECouncil @CAATfaculty "The CAAT-A team might say that this is an escalation. It is not. A No Board Report is an indispensable tool available to both parties."
But YOU chose to escalate. YOU chose to take the No Board Report. #DoubleSpeak

[RM Kennedy @RM_Kennedy]

The @CECouncil has refused faculty’s offer to send outstanding issues to arbitration—which would guarantee no labour disruption. If they believe their offer is fair, why not present it to a neutral arbitrator, and let us focus on what matters most: students.
#bargainingforbetter

[College Faculty @CAATfaculty]

Now that the CEC team has walked away from negotiations and rejected the faculty team’s offer for voluntary binding arbitration, they have left faculty with literally no choice other than to organize in favour of the faculty offer.
