ERIKA FAUST INTERROBANG For 41 years, Dr. Howard Rundle has been a constant pres- ence on Fanshawe’s campus. College President since 1995, he has seen thousands of students come and go, and has shaped the College’s reputation in the com- munity and around the world. “For 41 years, I looked forward to going to work most every day,” Rundle said in an August 28 retire- ment celebration. “For the past nearly 18 years, I have considered it an honour and a privilege to have held the position of Fanshawe College.” He said he can attribute his enjoyment of the position to three things: his hard-working and dedi- cated colleagues, supportive com- munity members, and the excited and energetic students. “This is an environment that’s hard to walk away from.” The August 28 celebration saw more than 300 attendees, including Fanshawe faculty and alumni, city councilors, Mayor Joe Fontana and presidents of colleges across CREDIT: JOHN SING Ontario.

Liberal party leader admitted to recreational pot use, and legalization may become a part of the Liberal Party platform. Pot and politics: The new “Green” Party VICTOR DE JONG INTERROBANG Federal Liberal Party leader Justin Trudeau has made legalizing marijuana one of his policies as he tests the waters ahead of a titanic federal election against incumbent Prime Minister Stephen Harper. The topic of legalization has surfaced repeatedly over the years from what would seem to be unlikely sources like former Supreme Court Judge Louise Arbor through the Global Commission on Drug Policy. While legalization would be incongruous with Harper’s platform, it has become a defining policy in the formative stages of Trudeau’s 2015 election bid. Canada has long been known for its leniency when it comes to marijuana use and possession. For proof of this, look no further than the lack of backlash over the leaders of the federal Liberal and NDP parties, Justin Trudeau and Thomas Mulcair respectively, admitting to recreational marijuana use in interviews with Huffington Post Canada. In fact, there was more controversy about Trudeau’s shocking confession that he’s not Civil rights on the other a coffee drinker than about his admission of smoking pot.
