The UPEI Student Union says it’s pleased with the amendments to the province’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
The amendments will bring post-secondary institutions under the Act. Student Union Vice President Emma Drake says that with PEI being the only province where such legislation did not apply to post-secondary institutions, it was time for PEI to modernize UPEI, Holland College and College de I’lle to national standards.
The UPEI Student Union has been actively advocating for such amendments since 2014.
