Step Up and Support Fair Wages

Minister Demetrios Nicolaides

Education support workers in Alberta play a critical role in keeping our schools running and ensuring students have the care and support they need to thrive.

Yet, these workers are chronically underpaid and struggling to make ends meet. That’s why they are now on strike.

We need Minister Demetrios Nicolaides’ help. And you can help him act.

From: [Your Name]

We, the undersigned, call on Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides to step up and, on behalf of his government, make the right decision for education support workers in Alberta.

These workers are:
• Underpaid, earning poverty wages despite full-time work.
• Forced to work 2-3 jobs to survive.
• Essential to keeping our schools and classrooms running.

This is about fairness for workers and stability for our schools. Alberta students and families rely on education support workers every day. They deserve wages that reflect their value and respect for their critical role.

A fair deal means:
• Stability for families and schools.
• Better outcomes for students.
• A stronger Alberta.

Demetrios Nicolaides, make the right call. Support fair wages now.
