McGill law professors begin unlimited strike as classes resume. This is a fight for the recognition of unions in Canadian #highereducation. @McGillU is trying to kill unions. We won't let them. #NoContractNoCourses montrealgazette.com/news/loc… via @mtlgazette

There will be a memorial gathering for Mohabat tomorrow morning at 10am, here is the screenshot from the facebook page of the Guysborough Nature Trail Parkrun. And I just learned that Mohabat means kindness ❤️

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Mohabat Tarkeshian earlier this week. @mohabattt completed her PhD in Math last year and has since been an assistant professor at @stfxuniversity She touched the lives of many with her warm heart, energetic spirit, and dedication. 👇

Fed up with the rich getting richer, while the rest of us struggle to get by? We are, too. And we’re done waiting. We’re taking action in communities across Ontario. Because enough is enough. Sign-up: WeSayEnough.ca #OnLab #OnPoli

It’s amazing the many ways our students can problem solve even the so-called right or wrong math questions. You really need to know the material.
If @WesternU dares to have non-TAs grade exams, this will be grade falsification, tarnishing its reputation as a research university @PSACOntario @Ldn_Labour @uwofa1 @cupe3903comms #StrikeAtWestern #FairDealNow

Amazing energy & community support for @PSAC610 #StrikeAtWestern! Paying fair wages for labour shouldn’t be a difficult decision. Keeping people in poverty is. #ONpoli #onPSE #FairDealNow #ONLAB

Can they even be a familiar face in the room who has reminded them many times before that they can do this? Math anxiety is real, and a big part of my job is helping our undergrads deal with that.

Great to see @Ldn_Labour, @OFLabour, @CUPEOntario & many others supporting Graduate Teaching Assistants fighting for a #FairDealNow & an end to the #StrikeAtWestern. #ONpoli #ONpse @PSAC610

They meet their employer.
Research shows that PhD students initially aspire to be professors, but that the desire wanes over time. Some think this is because of disillusionment with academia, while others attribute it to the challenging (impossible!) job market. What do you think?

And don’t forget all our coworkers from other bargaining units @WesternU ! I will picket with them, in person or virtually if I leave London, when they have to bargain. I will always stand with @psac610, @uwofa1, @CUPE2361 and all sister unions helping us.
I don’t think @WesternU recognizes the power they are giving us by allowing us to continue collective action. I have not only bonded with members of my department more this week than ever before, but I have met so many grad students across campus @PSAC610

Undergrads I talk to have said they feel so disrespected by Western University-that UWO should have seen this coming and still didn’t care enough to protect their client relationships with undergrads by offering a reasonable deal to TAs.

I am asking this question at Senate this afternoon: "As a two-term Senator, and Acting Director of the School of Health Studies, I have a question related to the effects of the Graduate Teaching Assistant's strike on undergraduates. 1 of 3
