Organizing Part-Time College Instructors – Writing on the Wall?

by David Doorey May 5, 2008
written by David Doorey May 5, 2008

This story describes the efforts of OPSEU to organize part-time college instructors.  They claim to have collected enough membership cards to be entitled to a vote.  Trouble is, the Ontario Labour Relations Act exclude part-time college instructors.   What justification do you think the government has presented to explain that exclusions?  Do you agree with the exclusion?   What do you think of the Ontario Liberal government’s stated intention to change the law?

Watching the creepy movie Enemy about a University of #Toronto prof who ends up stalking his body double.

Weird seeing Toronto actually play Toronto for a change, right down to visiting an apartment on Rathburn in Mississauga.

Also this is exactly what U of T profs are like.

Including collective bargaining rights and other labor rights that was essential to a strong middle class.

Thanks to a concerted campaign by America's right wing, often with the help of centrists from both US political parties, we have watched as a long list of the signature milestones of American social advancement in the post WWII era are being reversed, undone or blunted.
