Next Wednesday, November tenth, SFU Students will be gathering in the central campus convocation mall to protest against the high costs of university education. The protest is called UNITE for Public Education and will begin at three O’clock pm.

Student Loans Are BS
It is a right for all Canadian citizens to attend post secondary education free of charge. The Canadian government is making money off of us every minute solely based on the fact that we are Canadian citizens with a Birth Certificate.
