In the News: CUEFA is Victorious!
Academic staff at Concordia University of Edmonton ratified a new agreement over the weekend, ending their historic 11-day strike. In the proceeding days, SAFA officers had joined faculty association members from Mount Royal, Univ of Calgary, Univ of Lethbridge, Univ of Manitoba, and others, on the Edmonton picket line and at a Calgary media event to show our support. As well, over 1350 individuals and organizations from across Canada sent messages to the CUE administration and a student-run petition gathered more than 500 signatories in support of the association. As CUEFA President Glynis Price said, “Collective action is what made it possible, and CUEFA is grateful to the students, parents, other associations, and allies across Canada who rallied in support of this strike.” Further information on the strike outcome is available at https://www.cuefa.ca/.
