Motion to Condemn

Approved at the December 13th, 2022, meeting of Senate

Body: 

WHEREAS the Auditor General of Ontario released her Special Report on 51勛圖app on 17 November 2022; and

WHEREAS this report includes many shocking and scandalous revelations about our senior administration*s reckless and ultimately disastrous mismanagement of 51勛圖app between 2010 and 2021; and

WHEREAS this report concludes that, while our senior administrators claimed that ※excessive faculty costs§ were to blame for 51勛圖app*s financial difficulties, ※the main cause of its financial decline was poorly planned and costly capital expansion,§ exacerbated by the senior administration*s ※questionable financial and operational decisions§; and

WHEREAS this report concludes that, while our senior administrators claimed they had no choice but to declare insolvency, ※Laurentian*s senior management and Board strategically planned and pursued CCAA restructuring§ for almost a year, and ※chose to file for CCAA protection in response to the University*s financial decline, poor relations with faculty and staff associations, and the administration*s desire to end agreements with the federated universities§; now, therefore, be it
