UCalgary Rally for Alberta Student Day of Action
University of Calgary Students
Deep and ongoing budget cuts have dealt critical blows to our education. The Alberta government cancelled the province-wide tuition freeze, cut a three-year-total of $690 million from post-secondary institutions’ budgets, eliminated student employment programs, increased student loan interest rates and slashed financial aid, all while cutting the corporate tax rate for Alberta's biggest corporations.

We, the undersigned University of Calgary students, endorse holding an Alberta Student Day of Action Rally at 12 pm on October 29th in the Quad.
We call on the Alberta government for a reinstatement of a tuition freeze and a reversal of postsecondary budget cuts.
We support gathering at this rally with Covid-19 safety precautions such as masks and other PPE.
