URegina terminates fee collection agreement with student union

The University of Regina has terminated its fee collection agreement with the University of Regina Students’ Union (URSU), following a review of URSU’s 2024 financial statements. URegina says that URSU has not undertaken any recommended steps to improve or address its circumstances and as such has lost the university’s confidence in its ability to serve and represent students. The collection of student fees and core student services will continue in Fall 2025. CBC reports that URSU has had a “tumultuous few months” that included controversial motions related to several organizations on campus, accusations that the student union was involved in the disrupted Women’s Centre meeting, and criticisms about fee collection from students from First Nations University of Canada.
