“Now, there are a couple of things that could form the basis of a negotiation, something that we could potentially work with, but that’s when you meet at the table and hash it out, and they’re unwilling to do that,’’ Arfken said during a two-hour rally at the main entrance to the university at noon. The local members were joined by representatives from organized labour and faculty associations in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New Brunswick.
