As 10,000 Ontario college support workers take to the picket line in their quest for job security, they're also fighting for a better college system for the students they support.
Support workers do important work, such as helping students do their research in the library, helping them register for classes, and providing tech support. They're a vital part of the college infrastructure and their employer is taking them for granted. Ensuring that they have good jobs helps preserve the system, which acts as an important stabilizer for the Ontario economy.
