Gratitude, continued

A few days ago I posted a list of all the organizations that (seem to have) tweeted support for our strike action.  Today, a union leaflet names quite a few more. So below is the current list. Again I apologize for any oversights or errors, and would be happy to include any corrections.

The original list was compiled by me, as described earlier.  The additions (below in white) are from today's leaflet. I took some time to look up the official name of each organization (where I could*) and figuring out if they had a Twitter presence. First I looked for a Twitter handle, a 'find us on social media' or a twitter badge or something on their landing page, about us page, of their contact page.** If I didn't find one I did a search within Twitter for keywords from the organization name, obvious abbreviations, and so on. I have included the Twitter handles where I could find them. Organizations that seemed to have no social media (by which I mean Twitter and FB) presence are marked with (?)

*In one case, marked (FB), the website indicated a Facebook presence, but I could not find Twitter presence. 

**Ryerson University is undergoing a name change, so its faculty association will be renamed at some point as well. The name change is an interesting story. The tl;dr version is that Ryerson is/was named for the principal architect of the residential schools program, and especially with the discovery of hundreds of unmarked children's graves on former residential school sites, it seems at best inappropriate to name a university after him.

Please be grateful to these organizations with me.
