We need to correct this statement. USW was not involved in organizing the King’s College Circle encampment protest, however USW members have attended the encampment site as visitors in solidarity. USW Local 1998 stands in solidarity with the public’s right to peaceful protest.

(And, last last thing: Just want to be really clear that I didn't take a census. All I know directly is, majority I talked to weren't U of T affiliated. We also know that the protest was partly organized by USW. Beyond that, you'll have to do some journalism yourself!)
