The SFUO had no right to delete these comments. After all, this is not their personal Facebook page where they can just block whoever disagrees with them (@JimWatsonOttawa). At the end of the day, the people they disagree with are still people they represent.
I shouldn’t have to watch out to make sure I won’t get hit by Lance Armstrong everytime I leave my house.
I think there’s about 40,000 students who have a much better idea on how to spend that money. Perhaps the university could try offsetting tuition costs, or at least not raise tuition a month after finding out they have a surplus of $15 million.
The time for a new student union has come. But this is also a time where we, as a student body, need to be careful and calculated.
The Ottawa Citizen continues to miss the important discussion that needs to be had surrounding homeless shelters and affordable housing, instead choosing to focus on property value and crude complaints.
The guidelines put forth by the Ford administration for the university freedom of speech policies have been vague, leaving many to wonder what variations will be seen across the board, or if there should be variations at all.
