The failure to require masks puts everyone at risk of an airborne virus: one with not only short-term acute effects, but long-term harms--more of which continue to be documented. We know 2-way masking is far more effective than 1-way masking, making this a collective action issue

Very large text reading: "Masks AREN'T required but may be preferred." Poster has the University of Waterloo logo on it.

This. Honestly, what is the point of having a discipline that studies power if we're going to continue to support an institution that does this?
@cpsa_acsp
Based on the egregious show of force against peaceful student protestors where we saw a cop pull a gun on a McGill student, McGill's unwillingness to accept their demands (and no, sham conversations don't count) & AMPD's strike...
...is Congress REALLY still happening? 👀

The official position is that
@cpsa_acsp
will follow "the public health guidelines from the Ontario government" and
@YorkUniversity
's protocols. Both of these are wholly inadequate

Every single person working at & attending
@UWaterloo
ought to be up in arms about the removal of mask requirements. I want my department
@PSCIuWaterloo
to speak out. Studying power involves an additional responsibility to hold institutions accountable.

I asked the board to require masks at the conference, noting it is the least we can do to protect others and to make attendance inclusive and accessible.

The day after
@UWaterlooPres
posted a notice to end the encampment established by
@OccupyUW
we see this formal denunciation of the crimes committed (and ongoing) by Netanyahu and Gallant. It's beyond time to listen to
@OccupyUW
and for
@UWaterloo
to disclose & divest.

Basically an admission that 1) too many kids will get COVID that we can't/won't keep track, and 2) we don't care anyway. Not to mention ignoring the spillover into kids' families and the broader community (a majority of whom do not have 3rd doses).
@fordnation
New COVID-19 guidance for schools states:
"Given the widespread transmission and inability to test all symptomatic individuals, schools will not be routinely notifying students/pupils in classes with a positive case."
