Bruce Wark reports on Mount Allison University MAFA Group Statement on Gaza

Karen Bamford | Mount Allison (mta.ca)
 

Mount Allison University reporting by Bruce Wark:

"A split within the Mount Allison Faculty Association (MAFA) surfaced last month over a union statement demanding that Canada call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

A group of faculty members tried, but failed, to prevent members of the MAFA executive from making any future statements that aren’t directly related to collective bargaining or issues of academic freedom without consulting the membership first.

The November 10 MAFA statement, issued over the name of President Karen Bamford"
