Dear colleagues,

 As we approach the end of the federal election campaign, we urge you to exercise your right to vote. This is a pivotal opportunity to shape the trajectory of your community and nation. Your vote empowers you to express your perspectives on the issues that hold the most significance for you. University Affairs has compiled a comprehensive overview of each political party’s platform on higher education.

 The Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) launched the Unlock Education campaign earlier this year to strengthen Canada’s post-secondary education system. By addressing and advocating for the reduction of financial barriers, safeguarding academic freedom, and establishing robust and inclusive institutions, we can equip future generations of leaders with the necessary tools for success. We strongly encourage you to delve into the campaign’s initiatives.

 Make your views heard on election day.

 Sincerely,

Jeff Bale

Vice-President, University and External Affairs

Terezia Zorić
