Referendums

#1 Bon Appetit!

In 2006, a referendum passed to give 0,25$ per student to the SFUO’s Bon Appétit! food bank

Do you agree to contribute 0,75$ more per full-time student and 0,25$ more per part-time student per semester in order for the Bon Appetit! Food Bank to be funded to fulfill its mandate?

Aren’t there some referendums missing, including the Millenium villages? Has it been removed?

Why aren’t there any no platforms?

Greg, if you vote in the election you can vote “No” to those topics. :)

The reasson why there aren’t any ‘No’ platforms is a contentious one. I still say it’s because there is not official period of reveiw for referendums (at least none that I know of). Thus no time for students to start a counter campaign.
