“Students’ Council has been consider­ ing the question o f pullingout o f RAEU for over a year. We have a responsibility to ensure that McGill students feel com ­ fortable with their provincial union, yet I doubt that this has been the case. “ RAEU has not been responsive to our concerns. We have been negotiating with them for a long time but we never reached an agreement.

“We have asked that RAEU make an effort to com m unicate their actions to our students more effectively by provid­ ing some information in English. We have also asked them to revise the mem­ bership fee structure o f RAEU. Last

y ear we p aid o v er six th o u s a n d d o lla rs m o re th a n U n iv ersity o f M o n tre a l, w hile w e h ad te n th o u s a n d few er s tu ­ d e n ts,” said T riste r.

Since M cGill’s departure, R A E U has

added a ten-page section to its constitu­ tion, assuring that its members will be kept up to date on the state o f the union’s finances. RAEU has also pledged to hold som e o f its meetings at McGill and to publish information on its actions in the TR IBU N E, in order to afford our students greater opportunity to be familiar with RAEU and its poli­ cies. In addition, the organization has asked that McGill continue to be involved in RAEU as an observer until such tim e as the students vote on the issue o f which union, if any, they wish to

b eco m e a m em ber.

Until McGill joins a union, the Stu­ dents’ Society will continue to send observers to all o f the major provincial organizations. McGill’s voice will also continue to be heard through Students’ Council and Trister.

The Students’ Society has established direct contact with members o f the fed­ eral and provincial governments as well as the media. McGill's approach, in a

n u tsh ell, has been in te r-o rg a n iz a tio n a l as o p p o se d to a n ti-o rg a n iz a tio n a l.
