So now that my union voted to give up the right to negotiate & strike as per the advisement of the union executive, whose primary job is to bargain and organize for potential strike action, can anyone explain to me why we have a union executive?
#OntEd#osstf
Stopping myself from shitposting all of the #osstf “town hall” and “vote yes” tweets is taking a tremendous amount of self control.
So many thoughts and feels.
A onted thought experiment:
#OSSTF enters into voluntary interest arbitration. Agreements are made before arbitration deadline. Both parties decline to bring forth items to arbitrator. Process ends.
Has a collective agreement been achieved?
@LarryOrei@ETFOeducators@osstf#osstf pathway vote is for all of its education works. Members were told education workers could not get a deal without voluntary interest bargaining.
In today’s town hall we will hear @osstf and @karenosstf tell us that the @ETFOeducators education workers’ negotiation breakthrough was achieve due to the pressure #osstf put on the government with this pathway vote.
Anyone up for beverage bet?

The OSSTF/Lecce deal is an insult to all those educators who fought for collective bargaining rights and the right to strike in the 1970's. OSSTF is in fact free-riding on other teacher unions to get better wages and benefits. Disgraceful.
I actually personally voted for you to come up with a viable plan B. If you can't do that in the hottest labour moment in a generation, why do you make double my salary?? #osstf
@Prof_Savage@billreid03@lbrendzy@SBhanchod Y should it be any different now? We were divided last fall when deals started rolling in
Nothing to say we have to ‘stick together’
We have to do the best by our members
We don’t begrudge anyone their deal
& why are so many ‘experts’ denying #osstf our autonomy?
