Contract Faculty at Laurier will be in a legal strike position on Monday, Feb 23, 2026 if a settlement is not reached. This is a last resort. Our Members would rather be teaching and supporting students. 👇

The Contract Teaching Faculty Bargaining Unit of WLUFA will be in a legal strike position on Monday, February 23, 2026 should a settlement not be reached by that time.
