it’s in “the interests of all canadians” for workers to be able to exercise their power without interference from government!! and to have a properly functioning, properly staffed postal service — which is what CUPW is fighting for

Shouldn't it be obvious to the labour minister why negotiations have failed? Canada Post will never meaningfully negotiate when the federal gov't can be relied on to force workers back and remove CUPW's best bargaining chip. #SupportCUPW

We deserve better. Both Liberals and Conservatives have gotten us to this crisis point. On August 22nd, vote for the candidate with the experience and solutions needed to fix it. Vote Nicole Boland.🍊 nl.ndp.ca/nicole-boland

The autocratic entitlement on display at the highest levels of @MemorialU in its dealings with student protesters is (almost) unbelievable. Board of Regents chair Glenn Barnes—wait for it—was caught emailing the parents of students who had contacted him to support divestment. 🧵

.@MemorialU has issued a community update on the Palestinian solidarity occupation & encampment that both misunderstands the UofT injunction decision & how it applies—or does not apply—to the protesting students & Newfoundland & Labrador courts. It’s a legal & political mess. 🧵

BREAKING: @MemorialU announces that student protesters “cannot continue to live in a building or camp on grounds that are meant for work and study.”

Acadia University will be piloting a 4-day (28h) work week for the summer months beginning June 1st. I am excited to see how this improves employee wellness and work-life balance. My bet is the quality of work only gets better (and it’s already pretty great).

The provincial government and City of St. John’s recently welcomed ride-hailing giant #Uber, apparently without concern for workers and riders alike. Read the full article from @parismarx 👇 theindependent.ca/commentary…

Canada's media is full of sob stories about the supposed plight of landlords. It isn’t real journalism—it’s an effort to disguise the exploitation of the housing market. @Martin_Lukacs explains how the media teaches us to pity the landlord class, rather than be pissed at them.
