Hamilton reviews contracts with Redeemer after death of student

News

The City of Hamilton is reviewing its contracts with Redeemer University after the death of a non-binary student on campus last year. Redeemer reportedly receives part of its funds through city contracts. Hamilton’s LGBTQ advisory committee recommended that the city review the funding arrangement and verify if the university adheres to the city’s gender identity policy. The city also has reportedly rented space from Redeemer. City solicitor Susan Nicholson said that any contractual relationships between the city and Redeemer will be reviewed by legal staff.
