I have absolutely no faith that the government will step in on this. If we want our classes to resume, we should take matters into our own hands and pursue legal action.
Taking away students rights to education is pathetic behaviour. Do you know the definition of a 'scab'. We are not employed to do the job of the TAs and Contract faculty on strike, therefore, we are not scabs. Get your shit straight.
Screw Queens Park! They should have rallied in front of York against the Picketers, even if they were only 60 students I'm sure other frustrated people and students coming to York that day would have joined them. Then maybe the picketers would feel pressure to stop blocking the roads.
that was lame. there were less than 3 dozen supporters there, out of 50000 york students affected by strikes, you guys are fucking lazy and i am ashamed to be in the same school as you....
and another thing, stop saying we are neither pro union nor anti-union. back to work legislation in the education sector is exactly what we need. it will set a precedent for all future strikes involving teachers, tas, profs, whatever. why is that these assholes have the right to strike while so many other professions do not? let's make sure they lose more than the strike. let's make sure they lose the right to strike.
that was a great success! and thanks for posting this Excalibur. who cares if Shurman "took advantage"?? he's doing all of us a HUGE favor! and McGuinty reps., you ain't getting my vote next round. all this government does is TALK! where the hell is the ACTION?! you and your mediator would just sit back, relax and let the two sides get back to bargaining table when they THINK they can agree on some shit? when is that miracle gonna happen? BACK TO WORK LEGISLATION IS WHAT WE NEED.NOW!!
nice try

This is a well-made and un-biased video. Good work.

I don't think you could find a union member who would not support undergraduate representation in the negotiations.

A 60 person rally can hardly be used as evidence that the majority of 50,000 York students support the strike.

Well done Excalibur.
It's time for this strike to end and for us (the students) to get back to school.

"Scabby"? The reason CUPE 3903 has lost all credibility is because this is the best they have.
Vague references to "class politics" and predictable but meaningless "scab" insults don't win any support.

These students should get educated about class politics. Asking the government to enact back to work legislation is just pathetic scabby behavior.
