Support Striking Workers at North York Family Health Team

Support workers at the North York Family Health Team!

Primary care workers at North York Family Health Team (NYFHT) are on strike, fighting for their first-ever collective agreement so that they can continue providing the care our community needs. They provide comprehensive care for 95,000+ patients at all stages of life, from mental and physical health to chronic disease management.

The employer received additional government funding earlier this year meant for retention and recruitment but is using it to make up for their own financial mismanagement.

Tell the NYFHT Board of Directors to redirect those funds to fair wages and settle a fair collective agreement!
