Canada’s universities and colleges announce reopenings despite threat of COVID-19 third wave by a member of the newly established Cross-Canada Educators’ Rank-and-File Safety Committee (CERSC) . . Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the growing threat of a deadlier third wave, provincial governments across Canada have given the greenlight for the gradual reopening of universities and colleges. This premature and reckless step will contribute to spreading the lethal virus among students and staff on campuses and in the broader community. At the urging of Quebec’s right-wing CAQ government, which has been at the forefront of the Canadian ruling class’s back-to-work/back-to-school drive, some universities and colleges (CEGEPS) in Canada’s second most populous province began offering in-person learning as early as February 8.
