#CUPE Ontario, representing 290,000 union members, calls on the Government of #Canada to join #SouthAfrica’s International Court of Justice genocide case against #Israel.
The union has previously called for boycott, divestment and sanctions and an Arms Embargo.

Statement from Mandy Lamoureux regarding the #schoolbookban - #CUPE Alberta https://alberta.cupe.ca/2025/05/26/statement-from-mandy-lamoureux-regarding-the-schoolbook-ban/ “The problems in #Albertaeducation today stem from underfunded schools. Today’s announcement is a transparent attempt to distract from funding issues with dubious culture wars.
The government should talk to parents, who will tell them book censorship does nothing to solve the real issues students face.”
Please take a minute to send a message to the OCSB. The way that this group of workers is being treated by their employer, all because they made the choice to unionize, is not right. No one should be treated any differently because they choose to unionize.
I have just moved from mstdn.ca (with the same handle) so it's time for an #Introduction post!
I am a School Library Technician in Ottawa and a proud #CUPE Steward for my Local. I love to knit, read, hang out with my family and play cozy video games (with Balders Gate thrown in occasionally). I drink far too much Yorkshire Tea, preferably with a nice chocolate hobnob to go with it, and prefer my blanket to going outside.
I'm the last mask wearer at work.
Listen to this powerful message from Suzanne Weiss, a Jewish Holocaust survivor and Palestine solidarity campaigner.
Join all of us in telling CUPE to end its attacks on Fred Hahn and on Palestine solidarity.

#CUPE 3903 (representing contract faculty, TAs, grad assistants) is now striking at #York (with a rally happening right now). My department has voted unanimously to suspend classes in solidarity with CUPE.
CUPE members ought to get the pay raises they deserve! Particularly because their pay has been suppressed by a now-illegal action of the #Ford government.

Ol' Higgsy Baby hates #unions as much as he hates the #french. He's found another way for him and his pals to take more workers money by stealing their pensions, forcing them into high-risk schemes made to profit the #elite.
#Higgs rammed through legislation that illegally subverts signed #union contracts.
#CUPE is threatening illegal strikes in response.
I stand with CUPE! All power to all people!
@gemelliz @mrwclarkson That was the point of #DougFord attempting to use Section 33 to strip the bargaining rights from #CUPE education workers. He backed down, only under the threat of a #generalstrike
It will require a similar level of pressure to get Scott Moe to back down on this.
#Introduction post!
I've just moved over from mastodon.social (I was the same username pretty much!).
I'm a Library Technician, passionate about my job and about libraries in general.
I'm a proud #CUPE member!
I like tea, and will probably post lots of pictures of my cat.
