I’m LIVID + my students are mad as heck.

They don’t want pass/fail or sat/not sat!

CUSA you should be vocal in advocating for the students YOU represent and whose fees pay your salaries

We need to band together to fight for fairness @Carleton_U @cupe4600 @gsacarleton @cuasa

Lmao @ottawacity is giving a presentation on property taxes right now and this is how much they think buying a house costs in 2023 apparently.

The last time the average cost to buy a home was just over $100,000 in #Ottawa was in 1984.

These are the TAs Carleton says they don’t have any more money for, they rather let them starve!

Meanwhile in #Ottawa, Bylaw are currently hard at work taking down anti-convoy posters, ensuring that the convoy fascists who occupied our community for three weeks last year feel welcome and don't have their delicate feelings hurt by Ottawa residents.
