Senate is the highest academic decision-making body at Memorial. It is where faculty fight to protect academic quality, challenge cuts, and shape the future of our university. Memorial’s Senate needs your engagement. Here’s how to take part. 1/6

On the line when the workers got word that the Minister of Labour is stepping in to end the strike. Shame.

Honestly, the Furey government has absolutely broken the University with hairbrained schemes designed to make Furey budgets look better. That was it. That was the whole point.

The unwillingness to move on and fix what they did is going to cost them.

In real terms, provincial government funding to the University has been cut by 40-50% in recent years - that's a serious thing for any public institution to try to deal with... Blaming the problems of the University on a small decrease in enrolments is a strange analysis.

Remember, mourn, organize, take action.

December 6 is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada.

This day marks the anniversary of the massacre in 1989 of 14 young women at l’École Polytechnique de Montréal.

They died because they were women.

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 the Canadian Union of Postal Workers! ✊
