  1. Sault College and its president are suing Conestoga college and its president for defamation, seeking $200,000 in damages.

    It stems from comments Conestoga College president John Tibbits made in February about Sault College president David Orazietti, including referring to him as "a whore."

  2. A very telling article about John Tibbits, who is still president of Conestoga College (he was appointed when I was in high school).

    When I read his line "We are an example of how this should be done" and that sardining students into living accommodations is the students' choice, I thought of the ConCollege international student who was found living under a bridge, 100km away because of the lack of housing and other supports.

  3. @cs Canada has different rules for #LPFM #CommunityRadio and #CampusRadio. Starting in 1974 we got Canada's first Community Radio FM station, CKWR, right here in @waterlooregion, followed by Campus Radio FM: CKCU at Carleton Uni in 1975, then CFMU at #McMaster Uni in 1977, then CKMS at #Waterloo Uni in 1978. All were initially restricted to 50W or 100W, but are now 250W to 1000W. Waterloo is particularly rich in Community Radio, there's also CJIQ at #ConestogaCollege, and #MidtownRadio online.
