It's the dawn of a new day; the energy is rising! Join us as we continue organizing, building, sharing and fighting back; standing in solidarity with each other. OPSEU/SEFPO's future is BRIGHT! Let's do this together!
CUPE 2361 members – caretaking, landscape services and trades workers at Western University – struggle with an understaffing crisis caused by low wages and high workloads. There are not enough support staff to provide high-quality services in residences, classrooms, offices, labs and washrooms. This situation is unsustainable and we need your support. 🚫‼️
Send a message to Western's administration in support of the workers who keep the campus running. Tell them to negotiate a fair deal that reflects the rising cost of living and substantial gap in wages. ✊🏾📢

Ontario’s $10-a-day child care system promised better pay & working conditions for ECEs, but current funding & policies still leave staff without the decent work and fair compensation they deserve.
Tell @fordnation & @JustinTrudeau ECEs are worth more: https://t.co/UcggHlJ8zx

Life in Ontario is getting harder and more expensive. Fed up? So are we. Join us at #FordFest on Aug 16 and #ThankDougFord for nothing. We don't need a free burger; we want fully funded healthcare, education, and public services!

In 2017, contract faculty across Ontario colleges voted to join OPSEU/SEFPO. 7 years later, the OLRB has issued a decision to re-open ballot boxes, paving the way towards growing the union through new members across the province. #OnPoli#OnLab

Thank you for your support, solidarity, and commitment to this union. I asked you to bank on me. Today, once again, you have done just that & your support means the world to me. I look forward to continuing this journey with you, building on our wins, making our workplaces better
Day 27 of the #AGOstrike produced strike artifacts in real time with button making in the park. How many ways can you say #NoDealNoAGO?
Pledge to stand with @agotoronto workers, OPSEU/SEFPO Local 535, in their fourth week on strike at https://t.co/YRhwoWBn9R 📝
It’s not every day that Toronto mayor @oliviachow
joins you on the picket line! Thank you for standing with
@agotoronto workers of OPSEU/SEFPO Local 535 as they approach a month of transformative strike action. #OnLab#OnPoli
On Earth Day, OPSEU/SEFPO stands with all workers on the frontlines of the climate crisis. This is a fight which connects us to workers around the world & lays bare a world divided by racial capitalism - as the urgency for global action intensifies, workers must rise to the call!
Local 535 - representing @agotoronto workers on strike - headed back to the table Wednesday morning, joined by @JPHornick.
15 hrs later, it was clear key decision makers were missing — and the AGO walked away from the table, without notifying the Union. An update thread 🧵⬇️
Where in the world is Stephan Jost? Certainly not at the table, ready to get workers a fair deal - he can’t be bothered to show up for negotiations. If you see him let us know, and let him know we’ll be waiting #NoDealNoAGO
So many people support @LCBO workers fight for good jobs and public services! Fantastic response at this solidarity blitz today!
#KeepLCBOpublic#Justice4Workers
People realize the need to get organized & fight against the status quo and for their right to not just survive, but thrive. Shout out to all the new members who've joined OPSEU/SEFPO this year – we can't wait to organize, fight and win with you! #OnLab https://t.co/WHV3PPh96b
Fair pay, not peanuts! LifeLabs workers in Barrie rallied today with labour allies and community members ahead of their imminent strike deadline. These health care workers stand firm in their demand for a fair contract that puts patients and workers above profits.
Health care professionals employed by @HamHealthSci rallied today at all three hospital sites to demand pay equity. Members of @OPSEU273 are paid significantly less than their counterparts across the province. Rain or shine, we fight for workers on the frontlines! #ONLab#ONpoli
All the way from Hamilton, @agotoronto workers on strike were surprised by a visit from MPP @SarahJama_ on Day 24! Community and labour allies have shown up for workers week after week. Workers aren't alone - and we know they will win! #ONPoli#ONLab
