Huron College at UWO hosted a talk by renowned First Nations activist, Ellen Gabriel:

Within Canada and other post‐ colonial societies, there is a tendency to speak about colonization as a phenomenon that happened in the past. In reality however, the Indian Act remains a significant part of Indigenous peoples’ daily realities, struggles and lived experiences.

Drawing from her extensive work with Indigenous women in Canada and from around the world, Ellen asks: How can we, as a society, change this reality? Please join us for an exciting talk and lively discussion on these important issues.

After being defunct due to inactivity, the Rand Inn at Phi Delta Phi inducted Omar Ha-Redeye as the new Magister.

Phi Delta Phi is the world’s biggest legal fraternity exclusively for legal professionals.

He can’t beat them (women).

He might as well join them, even if they are a left-wing fringe group.
