well, here we are. I and many friends are now on strike.
The last set of strikes were successful- we restored our pension rights.
Wish us luck in trying to keep Dundee University a worthwhile place to study and work.

Industrial Action at BIMM Dublin
I heard today that after a strike ballot, members of the Irish Federation of University Teachers at the BIMM Institute in Dublin (Francis Street, Dublin 8) will be taking strike action from Monday 10th February in response to proposed redundancies. The proposed dates are:
I understand the students at BIMM are organizing demonstrations in support of staff threatened with redundancy. As an IFUT member I wish to take the opportunity provided by this blog express solidarity with those taking part in industrial action and hope for a negotiated resolution to the dispute. I am not based in Dublin, so I can’t attend the picket lines in person to show support on weekdays, but I am planning to attend on Saturday 15th February.
Telecom tariff hike: Planned strike, nationwide protest will hold – TUC: The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) has confirmed that it has not abandoned its planned strike action in response to the recent increase in telecommunication tariffs. The union stated that its members will participate in a nationwide protest to protest against the insensitive tariff hike, which will only exacerbate the… https://creebhills.com/2025/02/planned-strike-protest-will-hold-tuc?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #TelecomTariffHike #TUC #NigeriaProtests #StrikeAction #TelecomNigeria
If a service is SO IMPORTANT that when that service is withheld by strike action for better working conditions, better benefits and better pay by the workers and you spend ALL YOUR TIME freaking out, worrying, frantic social media posting, scheming, shouting and crying... it would seem that the people doing it are worth a great deal and that supporting those workers, so that they can continue to do that service should be of utmost importance. Put your energy where it counts.. on the employer that won’t settle a equitable contract.

In light of the recent developments, I wanted to do a little write up on Canadian based companies with lists to shop from. After looking at the 5th list I found and being disgusted because all the top ones are fossil fuel companies, a bank, or other humongous corporations that I don’t even recognize with a couple like London Drugs sprinkled in. Many people are, rightfully so, suggesting that people buy local from small stores, farms and makers.
The biggest problem here is that, as a maker/artist myself, I can’t get ANYTHING that I use for my shop that is made strictly in Canada. Paints, clay, varnishes, tools, jewellery findings, fabrics, bottles, jars... almost everything takes a roundabout trip from China and sometimes from the US. Years ago when I was a seamstress I use to cross border shop for fabric since I live very close to the border. I learned that our “free trade deal” only meant verifiable products manufactured in the USA, nothing that took a route through the US from other countries. So, in carefully keeping my receipts and declaring everything to pay as little duty as possible, I found out what was actually manufactured in the States.
The materials to make things bought from Canadian companies are usually sourced outside our borders. It’s frustrating but that is the way of this capitalist world we live in. I do recycle and reuse a lot of stuff, I find wooden boxes and other items to refinish and resell. I use little to no outer packaging if I can help it. Most ingredients in my incense and inks are right from the land I live on. But this is a drop in the bucket of what I need to keep doing my shop.
I have started buying almost all new lumber that I use for household projects mainly, for a small mill a few km away that comes right off a mountain I can see and is not kiln dried. Lumber used to be first shipped off-shore as raw logs then returned milled. It’s much more complicated now and I don’t know all the details without doing a ton of research. But, it is easier and better for my local community for me to buy right off the mountains that I live in. I buy wheat and other grains from local farms, and grow what I can, buy locally what I can’t.
But for much of the stuff I use in my business, it comes from elsewhere first. I can make sure to buy from local retailers to spread that dollar around in the community, not just while the strikes are on, but as much as possible. Like it or not, we live in a Global community for the time being and we need to get on with life as we can. So yes, I will buy from the shops lining my little hometown streets. And hope that my dollars come back to me eventually.

We have 3 strike actions happening at once here in BC right now.
International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) which is container traffic for BC ports.
Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) is Canada wide.
B.C. General Employees Union (BCGEU) (Employer is Waterbridge) for inland ferries, one of which is right in my small town.
These strikes were timed to cause the most interruption possible. Most people, myself included, support these and all unions. I see what an incredible impact these strikes have on everyone, and the division it causes. There is great power in strikes. The people on the ground are re-arranging their lives and waiting it out. We all need to be prepared for more actions as the imbalance between employer and employee, corporations and workers, industry heads and industry labour grows wider every day. Everything is deeply out of balance and has been for decades. People are fighting back. But remember, it’s complicated. There are many issues at hand and many different talking points. Making broad generalizations on the internet is the least helpful. Learn the individual issues and support the workers. Also, support your local businesses for not only food and essentials but also seasonal consumerism if that is what you do.
