Don’t Forget: Provincial Day of Action, Monday, September 9th
On September 9th, we’ll be back at the table for the first bargaining day of the fall semester.
Let’s make sure that we send the Colleges a strong message: the workers training the workers of tomorrow are united in our fight for a fair contract!
On September 9th, we invite all members to participate in a Provincial Day of Action:
- Wear purple or yellow in the workplace! Post photos with your colleagues to social media using the hashtag #TrainingOntariosFuture.
- Contact your Local to find out if a Day of Action event is happening on your campus (e.g. drop-in sessions, lunch & learn, GMM).
- Join colleagues across the province in celebrating our work, Training Ontario’s Future!There is much to be proud of in the work we do preparing students for meaningful careers in their communities
- Talk to your colleagues about the proposals currently on the table. You can find an easy-to-follow bargaining proposal breakdown here.
If you have any questions, or to send us your Day of Action photos, please get in contact with the Bargaining Team directly at bargainingteam2024@gmail.com.
We are strongest when we work towards a future together – it’ll take every one of us. Let’s start off the semester strong and ensure that not only is every one of your colleagues informed, but also engaged – ready to take part in the fight and turn up the heat!
