I’m thrilled to share an exciting new study. It is the first of its kind in Canada, and seeks to empower decision makers to make informed policy decisions and improve food security on university campuses.
Please take a moment to share with your network.

Council directed the Mayor to write a letter to Elections NB insisting that, if it's necessary to make future significant changes to the voting process (ie. relocating a polling station), they will consult with all parties (Town, MASU, MTA admin, etc) to find the best alternative
Thank you to @Boudreau_Ideas, @MountAllison community members, and members of Sackville community for assisting in this advocacy.
More information on the election will come to students soon.
After hearing that the polls were moved from the Sackville Civic Center to 45 min away in middle Sackville, the MASU is happy to say that ElectionsNB has agreed to the below to make the polls more accessible to not just students but the whole community.
