Will We Fight for Our Basic Human Rights?  Take Action Write Your MLA - Protect Our Rights and Public Education The decision to invoke the “notwithstanding clause” to force teachers back to work and accept an agreement that 89.5% of teachers had voted against is a gross removal of a fundamental right. Rights only exist in reality if people are willing to defend them. History has shown that when those in power violate the rights of one group, it is not long before the rights of other groups are also violated, unless people fight back.  Our strategy team met and set out the following strategy.  (read more by clicking the link above)

Good Jobs

Good Jobs was chosen as a campaign at the Discernment Assembly on September 16, 2024 by a majority of members. This issue surfaced through a listening campaign that heard from hundreds of people about the pressing concerns in their life. Work should be dignifying, but for too many in our community, they experience barriers to good jobs. Nuances of the issue include low wages, lack of opportunities to get into the workforce, challenges with credential recognition, labour exploitation, unfair work practices, unsafe work conditions, and lack of knowledge of workers rights. At this point we have convened a Research Action Team that meets monthly and will choose which specific sub-issues to advance.
