  • Statement of Opposition to Laurentian University's Insolvency
    April 17, 2021 Laurentian University has been undergoing an insolvency process under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA). On April 12, 110 academic staff lost their jobs and 69 programs are being cut. Hundreds more support staff will surely also lose their jobs. University professors and other staff are being terminated without severance, because under the CCAA, they’re treated like one creditor among many. They’ll have to sue in small claims court, probably for pennies on the dollar. Their severance will instead be used to pay off other creditors, namely the big banks who for years have been stacking University Boards around the province with their own representatives. It is a brazen robbery in broad daylight by some of Canada’s richest corporations. The bankruptcy process under the CCAA was designed for private capital and only considers dollars and cents, and is a form of legalized theft from workers. It is not equipped to properly adjudicate a public good like a University, which belongs to you and I. Despite what the corporate vultures on University Boards might feel, Universities do not exist to make a profit or to service the needs of capital; they exist to serve the public. And while Laurentian is allowed to fail, the Federal Government is handing out billions of dollars in bailouts to private firms like Air Canada. Laurentian University’s financial crisis is a failure of the Provincial and Federal Governments’ unwillingness to ensure our Universities are properly funded. This failure now endangers the survival of the university, its unique tricultural and bilingual mandate, and its place as a northern centre of research and education excellence.

As you may know, “Canada has no formal system of institutional accreditation,” as explained by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada, a national organization for the support of Canada‟s universities.1 In Canada “there is no federal ministry of education or formal accreditation system. Instead, membership in the AUCC, coupled with the university‟s provincial government charter, is generally deemed the equivalent.”2 However, this provides an accreditation equivalent for only a portion of Canada‟s universities: specifically, those with “an enrolment of at least 500 FTE students enrolled in university degree programs.”3 As we are by intention a small liberal-arts college conceived to offer an educational alternative to the large university, our enrolment will always be below that number.
