Actually, were 2-3 just during my time at U of C, including one in 2008. Tent City was a pretty common thing done to protest for affordable student housing. Signed, a former Gauntlet Editor http://archive.thegauntlet.ca/2008/09/camping-campus/

Because he’s a member of the university’s administration who made those decisions and subsequent attempts to misdirect. Now that he’s a candidate, he really should have not said anything or at least very little
Encampments are symbolic. Property is the basic flaw of settler colonialism. As such encampments are not just annoying but it’s challenging the very basis of wealth generation, and that’s a good thing.
This is true, but even from the colonial perspective, Corey is claiming that the encampments were illegal trespassing. In the case of this school's encampment that was up less than 12 hours, it was not actually even illegal. What was illegal was the violation of the encampers' Charter rights.
Agreed entirely. my point was only the property ownership was the reason why they are over-reacting and being so aggressive. It’s the underlying systemic cancer
