With the Fall 2019 semester winding down, the week of November 25–December 2 offers an extremely limited schedule for fans hoping to cheer on the Clan. Men’s basketball and hockey are the only two teams in action this week, and both play away from home. 

Due to the limited nature of the week 13 SFU Sports schedule, combined with this week’s edition of The Peak being the last before the winter break, this edition of the week ahead features two weeks worth of SFU Sports action, beginning November 25 and ending December 7. 

Women’s Basketball:

After a week off, the SFU Women’s Basketball team hosts Western Washington University on November 3 at 5:15 p.m. and Montana State University Billings on November 5 at 7:30 p.m. Both games are in the West Gym. These two games are the first of the Clan’s 2019–20 GNAC play, with the game against Western Washington being the regular season home opener. 

Men’s Basketball:

The SFU Men’s Basketball team will conclude its preseason schedule this week with games in Bellingham, Washington against Langara College on November 29 and Colorado Christian University on November 30. Following this, the team will play the first two home games of its regular season in the West Gym. After kicking off their 2019 GNAC schedule by hosting Western Washington University for their home opener on December 3 at 7:30 p.m., the team will host Montana State University Billings on December 5 at 5:15 p.m. 

Men’s Wrestling:

The SFU Men’s Wrestling team is headed to Great Falls, Montana for the Battle of the Rockies, which takes place on December 6 and 7. 

Women’s Wrestling:

An early season trip to Niagara Falls, Ontario for the Canadian Olympic Trials will occupy the SFU Women’s Wrestling team from December 5–7.

Hockey:

A trip to the Aldergrove Community Centre on November 28 for their third of six meetings with the Trinity Western University Spartans this season will be SFU Hockey’s lone game from now until December 2. The team will then embark on the first of two road trips to Castlegar, BC to take on the Selkirk Saints on December 6 and 7.

“Not at all” represented: Unhoused residents respond to Hastings decampment report

News copy -
Written by Hannah Fraser, News Editor In February, BC’s human rights commissioner Kasari Govender released a report on “the exclusion of media from the April 2023 Hastings decampment.” This two-day decampment was significant in scale, with 94 tents removed and residents forcibly displaced. Despite the City and Vancouver Police Department (VPD) insisting that human rights and press freedom were not violated, the report concludes that “transparency was compromised” by these parties.  According to the report, the media exclusion zone imposed at the decampment was not in accordance with human rights standards, as it lacked legal authority and “requirements of necessity and proportionality.” While framed as a “safe work zone” intended to address safety concerns, the “impact on media was not adequately considered.” As well, Govender deemed the...
