"Steering" is the practice commonly used by academic administrators that aims to give "soft" directives in a way that the administration can plausibly deny *are* directives. It is fundamentally dishonest and undermines #collegialgovernance. 1/8
Following our agreement with @mcgillu, @AMPL_AMPD , & AMPFA: #McGill has officially dropped its challenge to our certification before the Quebec labour tribunal. We expect to be certified imminently. Thanks especially to AMPL and everyone who has helped make this happen!
Oh, also: thank you, thank you to @CAUT_ACPPU & @FQPPU, whose financial assistance and other support has been critical. We would not have made it this far without them!
To clarify: McGill has dropped its principal challenge (concerning our existence). It will continue to challenge on scope (e.g., contract academic staff) and other membership eligibility questions (Dept. Chairs and Associate Deans). But that won't stop our imminent certification.

Through our confederation with the other two faculty unions at @McGillU, we get the best of both worlds: harmonization where useful and local negotiations to preserve each faculty's priorities.
Education profs knew what was at stake when we supported @AMPL_AMPD on the picket line the first time they went on strike back in February. We are stronger together.
Education❤️Law! #McGill professors of Education stand in solidarity with our colleagues in Law during their strike today--the first strike by tenure-track professors in McGill's history. @mcgillu @AMPL_AMPD @Edumcgill @LawMcGill

“One lesson stands out above all others: when we fight, we win!"
After a months-long strike, @AMPL_AMPD has an agreement with McGill whereby the challenges to AMPL's certification and the unionization of other faculties will be dropped.

We aimed to unionize 45 law professors at #McGill. We ended up facilitating the unionization of over 500. #solidarity @AMPE_AMPE, @CAUT_ACPPU @FQPPU
