The Right to Strike: Assessing our options for support

The Right to Strike is a key OCADFA demand in this round of negotiations, as well in the previous round. Although the Employer steadfastly opposes it, we may gain this right from the mediator/arbitrator in this round of negotiations.

Four organizations are interested in partnering with us:

  • Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT)
  • Defence Fund Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE)
  • Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU)
  • Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC)

This publication outlines the pros and cons of four affiliation options so that we can have an informed conversation about this important matter.
