Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU/SEFPO) will hold a strike mandate vote from October 15th to 17th for over 15,000 college faculty if an agreement with the College Employer Council (CEC) is not reached before this time. Faculty include full-time and partial-load professors, instructors, counsellors, and librarians. The OPSEU/SEFPO College Faculty Bargaining Team began negotiations with CEC in July and the two have yet to reach a renewal agreement. OPSEU/SEFPO representatives cited key issues such as adequate student evaluation time and job precarity.
