Tho the rally is postponed I still stand in solidarity with UMFA so they can get a fair deal. It’s time for the PCs to stop interfering so students can get back to class

Why do we need competitive salaries @umanitoba? My program is >80% Indigenous students. To attract more excellent Indigenous scholars we need a fair deal! Invest in the future! #umfastrike #umfa2021
