LRT: it’s irresponsible the way they’re handling this, and people are going to get permanently sick, and some will die.
COVID isn’t done with you just because you’re done with COVID.
@OCAD hey I’m interested in the Strategic Foresight and Innovation masters but haven’t seen any info sessions listed - do you plan to run some any time soon?

The event with a white supremasict associated name fixed it! They have a new, non-racist name.
Calling out racism and bigotry works. Keep raising your voice, especially for underrepresented groups!
I assumed if I emailed someone about this they'd operate in good faith, maybe they didn't know? But that is not how the email reads and the response was unacceptable. It is SO EASY to not associate your event with nazis. So, so easy. AND YET.

University of Toronto bans smoking on campus next year. I hope this is really well enforced. Toronto banned smoking in bars just before I attended uni and it was a huge relief for me. I don’t drink or smoke, and if bars had smoking I’d have had fewer pals. https://t.co/n2FpuOW67r
