The Québec Superior Court in Montreal has rejected the request for an injunction by a McGill University law student against McGill’s Law Students’ Association. The injunction application sought to stop the LSA from implementing a boycott of Israeli institutions, citing McGill’s and the Students’ Society of McGill University’s anti-discrimination policies. The court ruled against the injunction application, explaining that it failed to meet the threshold for urgency and irreparable harm requiring immediate relief. The National Post noted that several leaders from McGill, including President Deep Saini, McGill Law Interim Dean Tina Piper, and Faculty Provost Angela Campbell have spoken out against the LSA’s proposed boycott.
