The CSA offers our condolences to the family and friends of those who are grieving the loss of four innocent community members due to a horrific act of Islamophobia and racism in London, Ontario.
We are heartbroken by this senseless violence. Islamophobia, racism, and/or any forms of discrimination has no place at the CSA and we hope to work with students to tackle discrimination and racism in all its forms.
To the Muslim members of our community - we firmly and unconditionally stand with you and support you. We must look after one another as we grieve during this difficult time and encourage those who need support to please reach out to the University of Guelph’s resources:
