I’m not saying Trump’s actions directly caused the recent US air fatalities, but plane crashes will soon be the least of America’s troubles. I wouldn’t have imagined that the early deaths following the US election would be plane passengers and helicopter pilots. But I knew deaths would happen, and know that, sadly, many more will follow.

The Tait McKenzie Center gym is one of the busiest places at York University (YU). Even in the early mornings, students find themselves waiting for equipment. Some students have been demanding upgrades to the fitness center to meet the needs of the school population – especially as some equipment is old and rusted, including the dumbbells.
