CUPW Denounces Government Intervention

https://t.co/dCldyQ8OJY

[#1 haterade drinker 🌾🇵🇸 @tyelland]

it’s in “the interests of all canadians” for workers to be able to exercise their power without interference from government!! and to have a properly functioning, properly staffed postal service — which is what CUPW is fighting for

[Travis Perry @tsperry]

Shouldn't it be obvious to the labour minister why negotiations have failed? Canada Post will never meaningfully negotiate when the federal gov't can be relied on to force workers back and remove CUPW's best bargaining chip. #SupportCUPW

Solidarity! ✊

[Jessica McCormick @jessmccormick]

🚨55,000 postal workers across Canada are on strike this morning.🚨

They’re fighting for fair wages, safe working conditions, the right to retire with dignity, and the expansion of services at the public post office. Solidarity with @cupw!✊ #CanLab

[Travis Perry @tsperry]

@rgwhitaker Unfortunately, I’d guess that low-income students are at the top of the list of whose educational aspirations will get sacrificed. @MemorialU has totally lost the plot at this point…

[MUNFA @MUNFaculty]

We were proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with our fellow MUN student and labour unions today as we launched our #fundMUN campaign.

Tomorrow is E-Day for the Waterford Valley by-election!

We will be holding an Election Night Party with our candidate Nicole Boland to celebrate her campaign and come together with supporters, friends and family.

We hope to see you at Green Sleeves West tomorrow night!

[The NL NDP @NLNDP]

We deserve better.

Both Liberals and Conservatives have gotten us to this crisis point. On August 22nd, vote for the candidate with the experience and solutions needed to fix it.

Vote Nicole Boland.🍊

The autocratic entitlement on display at the highest levels of @MemorialU in its dealings with student protesters is (almost) unbelievable. Board of Regents chair Glenn Barnes—wait for it—was caught emailing the parents of students who had contacted him to support divestment. 🧵

[Heidi Matthews @Heidi__Matthews]

.@MemorialU has issued a community update on the Palestinian solidarity occupation & encampment that both misunderstands the UofT injunction decision & how it applies—or does not apply—to the protesting students & Newfoundland & Labrador courts. It’s a legal & political mess. 🧵

[Jessica McCormick @jessmccormick]

To learn that some employers avoided accountability simply because of procedural failures is shameful. Every day that passes without meaningful action to improve OHS is another day workers are placed at risk. #CanLab #InjuredWorkers #NLPoli

[AcadiaU President @AcadiaUPres]

Acadia University will be piloting a 4-day (28h) work week for the summer months beginning June 1st. I am excited to see how this improves employee wellness and work-life balance. My bet is the quality of work only gets better (and it’s already pretty great).

[Spring Magazine @springmagca]

Big rally this morning to support @occupyuoft . Labour and students united for a #FreePalestine

[The Independent @independentnl.bsky.social @IndependentNL]

The provincial government and City of St. John’s recently welcomed ride-hailing giant #Uber, apparently without concern for workers and riders alike.

[The Breach @TheBreachMedia]

Canada's media is full of sob stories about the supposed plight of landlords.

It isn’t real journalism—it’s an effort to disguise the exploitation of the housing market.

@Martin_Lukacs explains how the media teaches us to pity the landlord class, rather than be pissed at them.
