Presidential transition from Orvie to Erik will be complete as of midnight tonight. Thank you for this tremendous privilege over the last 2.75 years. Go forth, be brave, ask not what your union can do for you, ask what you can do for your union. #solidarity #umfa

I sent a letter demanding that Manitoba make post-secondary education a priority in its next budget. You should send one too: nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZBI9…

On this #IWD2024, CAUT celebrates the achievements of women academic staff and continues to advocate for gender equity in PSE. Gender pay gaps are still persistent in #cdnPSE, just one of many barriers that women still face in academia today. caut.ca/latest/2024/03…

The use of replacement workers clearly prolongs the length of labour disputes by nearly double, according to new research by @CCPAMB A ban on replacement workers would lead to shorter strikes. Good for workers and our economy. winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/2…


The UMFA flags were flying all day on the pickets line in support of @MSVUFA We’ll be there every Friday with the @CautFund for as long as it takes for you to secure a fair deal and advance EDI #supportMSVUFA Solidarity!

We are on strike today! We are overwhelmed from the support from individuals, @FQPPU, @CAUT_ACPPU, & fellow unions at @mcgillu!

Due to @mcgillu's refusal to bargain in good faith, our members are going on strike Tuesday, February 13! Join us on the picket line!

UMFA will be there when rights are being challenged, demonstrating allyship and solidarity – including at Sunday’s Rally for Trans Youth.

UMFA condemns any attack on 2SLGBTQIA+ people and their rights. Bigotry and violence that threaten the fundamental human rights and safety of 2SLGBTQIA+ people requires a strong unified response.


Education is not dangerous. Great to see so many faculty members and educators at the counter-protest this morning. #NoSpaceForHate #Winnipeg @UMFA_FAUM

The suggestion that the @MGEUnion President is solely responsible for accepting/rejecting bargaining proposals is an attempt at slander by the Premier. It's union members who have rejected the unfair and out-of-touch proposals from @HStefansonMB Do better Heather.

It’s time to stop playing the NDP’s politics and get back to serving Manitobans. #manitoba #mbpoli

UMFA Members check your inboxes. The Court of Appeal has issued its decision about the remedies owed to you and UMFA after the Progressive Conservative government interfered in our 2016 round of collective bargaining. #mbpoli


Faculty at Universite de St Boniface have been trying to negotiate a fair contract for THREE YEARS. Click the link to demand the university’s president accept the union’s reasonable offer, so quality French education can continue in Manitoba #UnitedForAcademicSuccess

I signed a letter supporting the APPUSB's bargaining efforts to protect high quality education and research at Université de Saint-Boniface. I encourage you to do the same! nwmd.io/s/twitter/Zx40…



So happy to be in person at my favourite health library conference in Halifax #chlaabsc23 But so sad to miss marching in #wpg pride parade today with @UMFA_FAUM and @ManitobaNurses #HappyPride

Trustee Kim Fallis got very emotional during her testimony, talking about her experience as the mother of a gay man. "Be careful who you hate, because it could be someone you love.” #bdnmb #mbpoli @thebrandonsun
