The govt’s back-to-work order for @cupw is yet another misuse of Section 107, trampling workers’ Charter-protected rights. Collective bargaining works best when agreements are negotiated, not imposed. Read @PresidentCLC's full statement: canadianlabour.ca/undermining-wo…

CUPE members: Consider signing a letter to the CUPE National Executive Board in support of Fred Hahn. Fred was recently elected President to represent the interests of our members, and our members have a vested interest in ending the genocide in Gaza. actionnetwork.org/letters/stand-…

The Cass review is well on its way to achieving the same status as Andrew Wakefield's work on vaccines: roundly dissected, debunked and discredited by actual scientists and professionals in the field, but stubbornly refusing to die because too many people like what it says.

The Cass Review didn't find a single child who had been harmed by puberty blockers or rushed into them by the NHS. It speculated, without providing any evidence, that the harm of blockers might be that a child would become transgender.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our comrade and collaborator, Jane McAlevey. Her powerful legacy as a labour organizer and strategist leaves us with a lifetime of lessons to draw on in the class struggles to come. rosalux.de/en/news/id/518…

Doing a meta-analysis during a short master’s program was a lot of work. It wouldn’t have been possible without the hard work of Alia Ford, Jaylynn Skeete, and the amazing @DesireeLElchuk. Thanks for always being on my team ❤️

“But my point is this: the perpetual fear that women live under will not change unless the structures of evil, inequity, and pain that encourage violent misogyny do too. Punishment is not the same as justice. Surveillance is not the same as accountability.”

A completely new precedent for Canadian and international law: sex workers have their rights confirmed in court to enforce contracts and earn payment for their services. We are so proud of Brogan and our team at @PATHlegalca 💙 theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

Very grateful for the opportunity to have presented our research on Clare's Law and hear @paytmcphee present our project on the reentry process after a sexual conviction. Looking forward to @NACCJP @CPA_CrimJustice next year to hear more about the great research others are doing!

Every judge that's heard a challenge against these bans thus far have found the claims likely to succeed and the laws openly discriminatory. They were written by hateful amateurs and are being trounced in court by transgender professionals.

"Advocates for transgender rights have been racking up early legal victories over states that are trying to ban gender-affirming care for minors, as every court to have considered a ban so far has blocked it." news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/tra…
