StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCEOPSEU says thousands of community and social service employees left jobs at agencies across Ontario, Canada as pickets formed
Thousands of community and social service workers represented by OPSEU are on strike across Ontario, calling on the province to boost funding for community services after walking off the job on May 25. OPSEU says “chronic underfunding” has forced many to work additional jobs, and coverage from CP24 and the Toronto Star reported provincewide picket lines. In Renfrew, CTV News reported that services halted as Community Living Renfrew County South employees picketed. The strike continues into May 26 as demonstrations spread to multiple communities.
Related actions are underway at agencies in Brockville and Simcoe. The Brockville Recorder & Times reported workers at three local health agencies are on strike after talks failed, while 160 staff at Norfolk Association for Community Living formed picket lines in Simcoe. Separately, CUPE said 97 percent of Bethesda Community Services workers voted to authorize a strike amid ongoing negotiations. The actions span multiple Ontario communities in the community and mental health sectors.
Simultaneous strikes at several Ontario community and mental health agencies coincide with a provincewide OPSEU walkout, with reported service pauses in Renfrew.
