The land we were served a trespass notice for is the subject of an active dispute and court case since 1995. For more information visit the litigation site by Six Nations of the Grand River, who have not served us a trespass notice at all!

Incredibly shameful that @UWaterloo is choosing to sue their own student body protesting their universities complicity in a genocide that’s 9 months in and has claimed the lives of over 40,000. History will absolve us students but you @UWaterlooPres , how will you be remembered?

With an overwhelming majority (85%) CUPE 5524, the grad TA/RA/Sessional union at UW voted in favor of Gaza House, which aims to end 76+ years of Zionist settler-colonialism in Palestine, including 8 months of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, and UW's complicity.

UW administration have been engaging in very open dialogue with us. "We're not going to engage in further dialogue". "That's enough of that conversation for us right now". Thanks for keeping us and the "groundhog holes" safe with 7 cameras and 24/7 police.

We are laser-focused on our demands. We are steadfast in our commitment to Gaza. While the university is watching us, we are watching Gaza and the invasion of Rafah at the hands of the genocidal regime.  DISCLOSE. DIVEST. BOYCOTT.  ALL EYES ON GAZA.  ALL EYES ON RAFAH.

We will not negotiate with the University if they do not explicitly and immediately address disclosure, divestment, and boycott. We the students committed to justice are powerful. We will remain steadfast and we will not budge unless the University acts on our demands.

UW LOVES PARTNERING WITH WAR CRIMINALS "Israeli" university Technion is considered the research arm of the IOF. R&D at Technion is used to develop weapons used against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. Students at Technion are paid to join the IOF and partake in genocide.

Our meeting with admin will happen on our terms at GH. There's nothing to hide and we want full transparency. Admin will be on full display with the student body, faculty, staff, alumni and community watching, like they’ve been invasively surveilling us with 7 new cameras 24/7.

KW: Hundreds of people took to the streets Wednesday, in response to the horrifying Zionist massacre in Rafah this weekend. The rally ended up at Gaza House encampment at UW in support of students and to call on UW admin to end its complicity in genocide.

Task forces are an expensive delay tactic used by the administration. Time and again they have been deployed by admin to crush student movements and take their steam out. They allow UW to continue its destructive behavior while having the appearance of taking action.

We demand transparency! UW shouldn’t cover up things from its students, whether they be meetings or investments! What is UW hiding? Meanwhile, they are invading our privacy and surveilling us with seven cameras and police cars 24/7. Intimidation tactics! UW is silencing dissent!

Our clear message to UW admin: End your complicity in Zionist settler-colonialism and genocide. We will not be intimidated by the WRPS, defamatory emails, or a dozen surveillance cameras.
