McGill University Faces Potential Semester Cancellation Amid Faculty Strike

The administration and law professors' union remain at an impasse, leaving students in limbo as the university threatens to cancel classes.

McGill University has warned that it will cancel law school classes if no agreement is reached with the striking faculty union by the end of the day.
The university offered to drop its legal challenge against the union's certification if the union agrees to negotiate working conditions collectively with other faculty unions.
The Association of McGill Professors of Law rejected the offer, calling it a 'non-offer' that fails to meet their demands for better pay and governance involvement.
Students are facing significant uncertainty, with some worried about extending their degrees or losing summer job opportunities due to the potential semester cancellation.
The McGill Law Students’ Association criticized both the administration and the union, urging more flexibility to resolve the dispute and protect students' educational interests.
