1/ 🚨SCAB ALERT: JD Vance just crossed the picket line in America’s longest-running strike.
Our strikers have bravely held their picket lines against the Post-Gazette for over two years as management has relentlessly violated federal labor law.

ICYMI - the #McGill law profs union stood strong and won BIG. Massive congratulations. Solidarity Forever. ✊🏾
This Memorandum of Understanding signals the permanent end of our strike, @mcgillu's dropping of its legal cases to undo our certification & its ceasing to object to the certification of @AMPE_AMPE & AMPFA. The 3 unions created a confederation of all McGill faculty unions.

This is Fair Employment Week! @AcadiaU would not work without the contributions of our part-time faculty. @AcadiaFaculty joins the call for fair and equitable treatment, pay, benefits, and working conditions for all.

Congrats to my friends over at @AMPL_AMPD and @AMPE_AMPE on their recent win! Looking forward to continuing to watch your impact on higher ed labor organizing!
We aimed to unionize 45 law professors at #McGill. We ended up facilitating the unionization of over 500. #solidarity @AMPE_AMPE, @CAUT_ACPPU @FQPPU

Courage, @TheAASUA ! We at @AMPL_AMPD stand in solidarity with you, just as you stood with us!
You. Will. Win! #unionstrong
Hundreds of AASUA and @UnionNASA members showed up today because we're not backing down. Increasing workloads, precarious employment, and stagnant salaries all pose a risk to #ualberta's high-quality education.
Thanks to all fellow unions who came out in support! #solidarity

How did @law360union pull off such a successful strike? Workers credit Rizzo the Rat for boosting morale and keeping the picket line strong! 🐀

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

When I teach the three dimensions of power in my Contemporary Social Movements class @mcgillu, I define the first dimension as “getting your opponent to say yes when they want to say no.”
Now I have Exhibit A, thanks to @AMPL_AMPD ✊

Well done @AMPL_AMPD ! Your resolve, your multiunion solidarity and your steadfastness against Goliathesque tactics is historic and inspiring ✊🏾 Kudos to your allies, including @CAUT_ACPPU @AMPE_AMPE and AMPA too 🙏🏿 Well wishes for all 500+ faculty members 👏🏾 @OCUFA

Also, each faculty union is still is own separate bargaining unit. They just sit at the same bargaining table for issues that might apply across the university. But the CAs are separate and must be ratified separately by each union.

“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.

.@mcgillu joins the 20th century and drops its legal challenges to faculty unionization. None of this would have been possible without the courage & sacrifice of @AMPL_AMPD members, who stayed out on strike for 13 weeks to win this ✊

Congratulations @AMPL_AMPD and @LawMcGill colleague @AdelleBlackett for your excellent work on employment equity!

We applaud our colleagues @AMPL/AMPD for their hard fought win over months of negotiating, advocating, picketing for the right to a Collective Agreement. #Unions are stronger than ever in multiple sectors and we will keep working together. #UnionStronger
"In an upbeat statement, AMPL President Evan Fox-Decent said, “This is a win for everyone at McGill. Through our first collective agreement, we will set a pattern that will serve all McGill professors, students, and staff into the future.” montrealgazette.com/news/loc… via @mtlgazette
