Come out to the
UNDERGRADUATE FORUM: Why Students Supported the CUPE 3903 Strike.
Thursday, February 12th 2009
5:00 pm
Rm 307 The Student Centre
Speakers from various student groups discuss the strike and its importance to students. Includes an open forum for students to engage with the issues.
- Why we as students support the CUPE strike:
- We are or will be workers in the future.
- Back-to-work legislation is an attack on basic labour rights
- wages, benefits, and social services have been undermined by both government and business interests for decades
only through collective action can we defend our interests
- CUPE 3903 has been at the forefront of fighting for accessibile and quality education
- If undergraduate students had supported the strike from the beginning, it would have ended a lot sooner
An Undergraduate Intiative. Supported by OPIRG York, Students Against Israeli Apartheid, Always Question, Basics Free Community Newsletter and more…
