The Canadian Association of University Teachers condemns the Alberta government for overriding constitutionally protected rights and imposing a rejected contract offer on members of the Alberta Teachers’ Association.

Too many contract faculty have to reapply for their jobs every term and don’t know if they will be teaching semester-to-semester or year-to-year. #Fairness4CF #MakeItFair @caut.bsky.social

Les membres du personnel académique contractuel portent plusieurs noms, mais ce qu'il a en commun, c'est le manque de sécurité de l'emploi et d'accès aux ressources.

Rejoignez l'appel en faveur d'un traitement équitable du personnel académique contractuel.

It's a common misunderstanding that unions are led by outsiders, that some union elites at a national office control everything.

This is, factually, not true. Unions are fundamentally democratic. Every single decision, every discussion, every post, every item are voted on by YOU, the members.

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.
