Thousands of part-time and sessional faculty at Ontario's 24 community colleges are voting on whether they want to be represented by the Ontario Public Service Employees Union.
The vote, supervised by the Ontario Labour Relations Board, started today and continues until October 13th.
Contract faculty who teach six or fewer hours per week or more than 12 hours per week on short-term contracts are eligible to vote.
The union already represents all full-time faculty and support staff at the province's community colleges.
