as far as i’m aware mac only considered going back to the bargaining table once TAs started blocking the in-progress grad residence where rent is more than what mac pays grad TAs. + the above QRTed L only happened once students started occupying buildings. just an observation 🙂

“Protesting is good, asking for change is bad” is actually a pretty good encapsulation of how notions around revolt/resistance have been aestheticized beyond all meaning and context

Trudeau says now that public protests are important in democracy, but "using protests to demand changes to public policy is something that I think is worrisome."

for legal reasons that first tweet is a "joke" because we can't legally compell you to join us. however i CAN legally say that you will be no better off if you DO scab because you won't have any legal protections under the contract that currently does not exist 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

also incredibly slimy of you to put the living wage for FULL TIME work next to our own wages when we’re limited to 20hrs/wk MAX over our ENTIRE school career. we dont make a living wage are you out of your mind. the only reason i can work as a TA is bc i live at home rent free

INCREDIBLY sexy of CUPE to have gotten the ford government to retract bill 28 entirely with only a few days of wildcat striking. fingers crossed my employer finally starts bargaining in good faith with my CUPE local in the wake of this 🙂

if you remember me posting about a fundraiser for my year's graduating exhibition, there is now a fundraiser for the graduating exhibition in the year behind me! they've set a very modest goal of $500 that they've already almost met, help them reach that!
