"The persecution of students for solidarity activism with Palestine, and brutal, arbitrary detentions of international students and immigrants should be issues of grave concern to all of us."
April 25, 2025Dear Dave Beers,
I am writing to commend The Tyee on the publication of Katie Hyslop’s important article, What Post-Secondary Students Want this Election.
The article takes a nuanced look at the many issues facing post-secondary students in play in this election, among them the threat of a US-style erosion of freedom of assembly and speech on Canadian campuses.
The persecution of students for solidarity activism with Palestine, and brutal, arbitrary detentions of international students and immigrants should be issues of grave concern to all of us.
Thank you for bringing it to the attention of your readers.
Sincerely
Tim McCaskell
