The FEC has launched a campaign to save the ACTIVISM COURSE (initiated in 2005 by Prof. Denis Rancourt, University of Ottawa).

This course was created by democratic student action and is being threatened by a nearsighted and reactionary university administration.

It is a unique and empowering course open to all.

More detailed information about past offerings of the activism courses is posted at:

Please contact previous students or the FEC for more information: ottawafec-at-gmail.com.
