A student union representative at Montreal’s Concordia University is speaking out over some content in the 2025–2026 Student Union Handbook, including the front cover, which features images of pro-Palestinian protests.

Concordia Student Union (CSU) councillor Anastasia Zorchinsky says there are no Canadian flags in the book, but several images of Palestinian ones, and it does not list any Canadian holidays in the calendar section, but does list occasions like Nakba but not Christmas.
