Founded in 1919, your union represents more than 60,000 anglophone and francophone education workers and teachers in more than 150 Bargaining Units across Ontario in public and Catholic schools, including members who work in the university sector and in independent education programs. [...] Our motto is “Let us not take thought for our separate interests, but let us help one another” and our slogan is “protecting and enhancing public education.” Together these statements act as our guideposts, signaling our united commitment to bettering the lives of all the students we serve and, in turn, bettering the future of our province. [...] The future of our union is only as strong as the membership’s belief and trust in the organization, and to maintain that trust, we commit to doing this work together. [...] Our solidarity extends to equity and sustainability work we support through our International Assistance program and other partnerships, including membership in Education International, the Canadian Labour Congress, the Canadian Teachers’ Federation, the Ontario Federation of Labour, and the Ontario Teachers’ Federation. [...] This brings with it the power of solidarity in the face of oppression, and to our fight for better working and living conditions for all.
