More education support workers could join those already on strike in Edmonton, Fort. McMurray and Sturgeon County unless the province lifts wage caps and puts more funding into education. Alberta's students deserve a high quality education system. #ableg #abed #abpoli

Education support workers in Parkland School Division could soon go on strike. They've exhausted efforts to come to a fair and reasonable agreement at the bargaining table. The provincial must lift its wage caps and lift funding if labour action is to be avoided. #ableg #abed

Alberta schools are at risk of losing many of the dedicated education support workers our kids need. Hundreds of positions are going unfilled due to low, stagnant wages. You can help.

Parents and students join education support workers on the picket line in Fort McMurray. This happens on picket lines across Alberta because the strikes are not only about wages, they're also about the fight for public education. #ableg #abed

Premier Danielle Smith has the power to stop strikes in the education support sector. All she needs to do is fund student enrolment and allow school divisions to bargain freely. Albertans know our provincial government can afford to pay fair wages and fund public education.

Alberta's education support workers are at bargaining tables with school boards, but school boards don't set wages. The provincial government does. It needs to act by increasing public education funding and lifting wage caps. Otherwise, labour action will escalate. #ableg

Lauren has a message for Premier Danielle Smith: end the strike by education support workers. Our kids need them. The provincial government is wrong to impose a wage cap that prevents school divisions from giving education workers a raise. #ableg #abed

Some genuine good vibes were shared at the CUPE 4625 Morinville picket line today. Staying strong for fair wages & support for students in public education can often include a little family-friendly fun.

The provincial gov't sets wages for education workers at the bargaining table, not school boards. This is from the Foothills School Division where 300 support staff with CUPE Local 5040 will soon hold a strike vote. The province isn't honest about its role in strikes. #ableg

Thousands more education workers with CUPE will vote to strike this weekend and could soon join the more than 4,000 workers already on strike unless the Alberta government addresses low wages of school support workers. #ableg #abpoli
