"Canada has one of the highest rates of unionization of academic staff in the world. But that wasn’t always the case. How is it that we went from laggard to leader in academic staff unionization?" Read more in the Bulletin: caut.ca/bulletin/2024/…
The preservation of meaningful collegial governance in universities and colleges increasingly rests on strong academic staff associations. Check out my latest contribution to @caut Bulletin with @stephross_mac. caut.ca/bulletin/2024/… #canlab #cdnpse
"So, how must we best accommodate these accommodations? As the requests increase, there needs to be careful assessment in the application of such remedies to sustain students, staff and faculty." Read the latest President's Message: caut.ca/bulletin/2024/…
#Budget2024 includes exciting announcements for graduate scholarships and postdoc fellowships, as well as research funding. These investments are significant wins for post-secondary education in Canada.
“Bill 18 opens the door to political censorship that has no place in a democratic society such as ours,” CAUT executive director David Robinson CAUT calls on the Alberta government to scrap Bill 18: caut.ca/latest/2024/04…
Without proper funding for research, scientific progress, job growth and productivity are all at risk. It's time to invest in research. Learn more: researchcoalition.ca #Coalition4CdnResearch #cdnpoli

Canada urgently needs to increase its investment in research. Research is key to develop highly skilled people who can help solve pressing challenges facing Canadians, including housing affordability, health care and climate change. ⬇️ researchcoalition.ca
Federal graduate scholarships have not increased in value in two decades. Inflation has undercut support for our next generation of thinkers and innovators. We must increase scholarships to keep talent here in Canada. Learn more: researchcoalition.ca #Coalition4CdnResearch

We need your help. We need politicians to invest in research. Tell the government why the research you’re doing is important to Canadians. They need to hear your stories. Click now to send a short (but important) email: researchcoalition.ca/#take-action #Coalition4CdnResearch
URFA’s SAC is excited to announce that we will be hosting our first-ever Sessional Symposium on May 3 in Regina. Regular registration will be open soon — but in the meantime we are pleased to open the Call for Presenters! Learn more: urfa.ca/news/sessional… #canlab
"The last several years have seen a wave of faculty strikes at post-secondary institutions across Canada...These strikes have highlighted the broader crisis of public funding in PSE, which has plummeted dramatically over the last 40 years." #canlab pressprogress.ca/its-going-to-b…
Since 2016/17, Saskatchewan schools have 15,000 more students. Yet only ten (10!) more teachers. @SaskTeachersFed is exactly right - the government must stop short-changing tomorrow's workers and get back to the table.
STARTING NOW! Join us to discuss building a provincial #PSE coalition. Get the link to join: urfa.ca/events/townhal…
