Privatization of our university public services has a great ripple effect far beyond those who are the immediate casualties. The impact of tuition user fees and corporate infiltration on the university community spills over to everyone. But so does the direct privatization of the work of support employees such as maintenance, trades, administrative, library, and child care, along with the privatization issues directly impacting academic staff such as sessionals and TA’s. Privatization is eroding our network of public services and our sense of community. Under privatization, corporations reap profit and power, while employees see eroding wages and working conditions and students see diminished quality and access. Fighting privatization forges a common cause for support and academic workers.
