As of November 1st, approximately 500,000 Ontario students have been denied education for three full weeks due to a faculty strike that shows no real signs of ending.

We as students have been placed in a situation, in which we have no control over that puts great stress on our academic year and personal schedule.

It has now come to our attention that the schools now intend to extend our academic year well into December and cancel planned breaks to accommodate for lost time.

Many students find this simply unacceptable as we have been placed in a situation we had not planned for and can not tolerate the inability of the union to come to a reasonable solution in due time.

With this petition, we demand that regardless of what time frame the strike is settled in, that our full tuition is refunded, without penalty, if we do choose to opt out of our chosen program.
