Canadian Federation of Students Federation
'. c Dear Members, Under the Bylaws of the Federation, the National Executive is required to submit a written report to each national general meeting accounting for its activities and the activities of the Federation since the previous national general meeting. Amongst other.things, the Bylaws state that the Report is to clearly delineate "the disposition of all directives given the National Executive by the plenary of the previous general meeting." Unfortunately, due to a variety of factors and pressures, the National Executive did not have an opportunity to compile information on all of the previous general meeting's directives prior to the deadline for producing and translating the Report. On behalf of the National Executive, I apologize for this ommission. Nevertheless, I believe this Report provides a satisfactory overview of the Federation's activity since the previous general meeting. ~ojtruIY'i ~I/{~W lff}u~/l Michael Manci elli National Deputy Chairperson - ------- ----_ ... ------------ 1. CAMPAIGNS At the previous national general meeting, members called for a number of campaign initiatives. Campaign Against Federal Funding Cuts The May 1995 national general meeting resolved that an "On to Ottawa' trek be held. Since then, the National Executive has made a number of efforts to put things in progress. The date to launch the Trek has been chosen as May 1. A coordinated effort will be made to organize students and our supporters to make their way to Ottawa from then until the 8, when a week long of activities will begin. For those who cannot make the trip, local and regional actions will take place. -

The year before, Shared Perspectives: A Joint Publication on Campus Sexual Violence Prevention and Response offered solutions for ending sexual violence on post-secondary campuses. And in 2017, Shared Perspectives: A Joint Publication on Student Mental Health identified opportunities to improve the mental health resources available to students on campus and in their communities. Our organizations are dedicated to improving post-secondary education in Canada, whether that’s advocating on the issues mentioned above or for high-quality course instruction, improved student financial aid programs, expanded work-integrated learning opportunities, affordable housing options, or increased access to education for students from underrepresented demographics. -
