Congratulations to our sisters and brothers from @psuossuo for reaching a tentative agreement with the employer after almost two weeks on strike!
Great work from the negotiation team!

Asking Board of Governors members to reconsider the mandate to strip employee health benefits during a pandemic and under Doug Ford's disastrous #Bill124 is not in the interest of #uOttawa and allow both sides to negotiate

Being an expert on the "social aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic" @picardonhealth you know better than anyone that employee health benefits are crucial.
Please postpone your talk this week out of solidarity to 1,300 #uOttawa employees defending health benefit cuts.
Cuts to the benefits are having a huge impact on local families. This was shared with me by a colleague. This is how the cuts to her benefits impact her son and her.The next step needs to be a return to the discussion. @uOttawa@psuossuo#FairDeal4PSUO#FairDealNow4SSUO
We would much rather be working and helping our students. @uOttawa, it’s time to head back to the bargaining table and be reasonable. We work hard and don’t deserve our existing benefits to be lowered, especially not during a global pandemic. @psuossuo@osstf#FairDealNow4PSUO
25 YEARS after ‘welfare diet’ debacle, social assistance STILL hasn’t recovered from Mike Harris (21.6%) cuts:
“The adequacy of welfare incomes have been a problem for a long time in ON & I think this report suggests things are getting worse” #ONpoli

#uOttawa Students were told that the University "Will be working hard over the weekend to avoid a strike."
But where is @recteurUOpres saying he will back down from health cuts during a pandemic?
Students, you are being let down @seuo_uosu@GSAED94#FairDealNow4PSUO#OSSTF

HAMILTON: City will move on encampments tomorrow.
Tent cities are increasing across ON @ an alarming rate as rents continue to soar. Moving folks to hotels & shelters is a band-aid solution.
W/out real #affordablehousing, this is only gonna get worse!
