In Canada, proposed cuts of 15% across the federal government would have a dramatic effect on already globally decimated research & science.

Join Canada's research and science community and tell PM Mark Carney to preserve the funding promised in 2024.

Send a letter: win.newmode.net/canadianasso...
Illustration of a magnifying glass above text that reads "Take action now! Tell the Prime Minister not to cut science and research funding in the Budget on November 4."

It's been almost four weeks since the @dalhousieu.bsky.social lockout of DFA faculty began. Progress has been made. Now, it's time for President Brooks to step in and get the Board to accept what is a fair and reasonable offer by the DFA. Let's get on with the term. #keepdalstrong

The @cautdefencefund.bsky.social flying pickets shared solidarity from across the country as @dalfaculty.bsky.social completed week 3 of being locked out.

It was my sincere privilege to spend the day walking the pickets lines, bringing unwavering support from @umfa-faum.bsky.social

If you haven’t been to an UMFA craft day yet, well here’s your chance! If you’re working on a project, bring it along. If you don’t have a project, we have supplies. This is a great opportunity to meet new faces and catch up with familiar ones. June 6 from 12-1 in the UMFA boardroom.
