I'm not sure what the federal government's jurisdiction is, but I think it comes when we work with communities. It starts from the local level and then it fans out. Students and activists and also community groups are already doing some of that work. How can the work that is happening be supported by the federal government? Sometimes that's just investing more money into those strategies so that there can be more staff hired to continue those initiatives.
I think conversations need to be brought into classrooms more. That's a hurdle we've heard students talk about. Incorporating some of this subject matter in curriculum is something that's proving to be a bit difficult. It has to pass through a lot of different bodies, like a senate, to make sure it happens. That's something worth looking into.
It would also be creating those discussions at the classroom level, where students are. Oftentimes we see in the greater Toronto area, for instance, campuses that are commuter campuses. Students come in for their classes, and then they leave. They don't get engaged or involved in the process. It would be about having those dual strategies of having the conversations with everyone—having community actors present on campus and doing that type of work, but also having the conversations in classrooms. That would be a good place to start.
