Happy #Pride2023 from Team #Skysharks & the #WetlandsAndReptilesProject! Thank you to our #LGBTQIA2S+ lab members, collaborators, friends & family for sharing your wonderful, whole selves in our science & our lives. (Conservation Pride Flag👇🏽was our lab project in 2021).

#SupportOurScience in the media! From @cbcnewsbc: Canadian post-grad students walk out, demanding increased federal funding for researchers cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Reluctant to use community science data due to issues with data quality? Check out our new paper in @MethodsEcolEvol doi.org/10.1111/2041-2… @Joe_Ecology @CarletonScience @GLELCarleton

TAs have been assigned make-up labs &tutorials. We have end of term marking. But what’s truly awful is the reality that this employer would rather degrade the academic experience for students to enact a punitive gesture on an already precarious group of student-workers. /4

CUASA, CUPE 4600 unit 2 members, and CUPE 2424 members all have anti-scab protections in their collective agreements. Stand in solidarity with your striking TAs!

Shame on @Carleton_U!😤

These are the TAs Carleton says they don’t have any more money for, they rather let them starve!

All this and more details for @CharlatanLive: charlatan.ca/2023/03/31/cou…

We have a strong message for @Carleton_U: get back to the bargaining table & treat academic workers with respect. CUPE's National Executive Board joined striking @cupe4600 members to demand fair pay, appropriate student-TA ratios, & intellectual property rights. #StrikeToWin

Academic workers’ demands for a fair contract also include being treated with dignity, respect and fairness in their working lives. For such goals, @cupe4600 will always have the support of CUPE Ontario and its 280,000 members. Read our statement here: cupe.on.ca/academic-worke…

A very important thread!🧵

Carleton Works Because We Do!! Show your support for @cupe4600 here: act.newmode.net/action/cupe-46…

The Government of Canada makes promises about protecting nature, but do you ever wonder how well they follow through? Recent reports by Canada’s Commissioner of the Environment show that Canada is falling short in protecting #SpeciesAtRisk. Learn more: ow.ly/ljmB50M8C4b

The chance that you could be indirectly responsible for someone’s death or disability, however small, should guide your every decision. Going maskless at the cinema, grocery store, concert, airplanes, or even at work has consequences. Ones which we aren’t aware of. (6/10)

As #COP15 kicks off in Montreal, a reminder that Indigenous people are the world's best defence against biodiversity loss and the climate crisis. Canada cannot claim to be a leader while our governments violently criminalize Indigenous land defenders. vox.com/22518592/indig…

Parks Canada has sent a letter to the Ontario government warning Greenbelt development would violate a federal-provincial agreement and likely cause “irreversible harm” to species at risk, natural ecosystems and farmland. via @EmmaMci #onpoli thenarwhal.ca/ontario-greenb…

Earlier this month, we joined other community organizations #Ottawa residents to condemn the detrimental #Bill23 that destroys agricultural land and greenspace and quashes tenant rights all while making housing more unaffordable. We must fight back. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Talk about timing. In September, prominent developer Michael Rice paid $80M for land that’s been protected for almost two decades. Weeks later, Doug Ford announced changes to the Greenbelt. Rice’s land was suddenly set to open up for housing. thenarwhal.ca/ford-ontario-g…

“Lamprey is completely gone.” They do not have consent. Anyone actively destroying our lands and waters for future generations are in violation of Wet'suwet'en law! Stand up!! Fight back!! #WetsuwetenStrong #AllOutForWedzinKwa thenarwhal.ca/coastal-gaslin…
