Motions Approved: ASC Report #W2021-5:
AGPC Report #W2021-5:
YSGS Report #W2021-3:
Members' Business: - Motion: Whereas the application of the federal Company’s Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA, 2014) to the recent financial “insolvency” of Laurentian University has resulted in drastic cuts to programs and staff (academic and non-academic) which seem not to have taken into account academic matters central to Laurentian’s institutional goals and long-standing commitments; And whereas the Company’s Creditors Act’s statement of purpose, focused as it principally is on “the protection of capital”, and protection of shareholder’s interests, is inappropriate as the basis for addressing a financial crisis of a university; And whereas it is unclear whether this Act of Parliament was ever intended to be applied to the university/post-secondary educational sector; And whereas it is imperative that further uses of this Act in the university/post-secondary sector be prevented; Therefore, be it resolved that the Senate of Ryerson University hereby asks, indeed implores, Ryerson University’s senior administration and Board of Governors to take action, in concert with other universities or alone, and consistently with prudential concern for the well-being of Ryerson University, to attempt to persuade Parliament to remove universities from the purview of the Company’s Creditors Arrangement Act.
