the vp of equity vaishali called me and texted me during the election, because i recieve a food box to get my groceries. she told me to vote for her and made me screenshot my ballots and prove i voted for the team adapt. i was pressured from her to vote for them because they basically control if i get my groceries or not. https://imgur.com/a/lkhDy6q

She did the same thing with me. When I said I would have to vote for the other team since I have a friend in that group. She was basically like remember when I helped you during quarantine with the food box. I was like fuck now I am never gonna get the resources from RSU.

If this is verifiably true, she should 100% be disqualified. You're using a throwaway but I recommend hitting up the CRO with your real name and details.

I am so sorry this happened to you! That is awful and ridiculous abuse of power

I’d contact a lawyer, not the CRO.

Do you have any screenshots connecting her mentioning the food box to encouraging you to vote?

I doubt any Adapt candidates will get disqualified, given how incompetent the current CRO has been during the whole election. But one can dream. At least their reputation is tarnished before they even start, so that’s a small win.

if it gets enough attention, the CRO may not be able to ignore it

Speaking from experience as the former treasurer of the Ryerson Campus Conservatives.


It's not incompetence. It's corruption.

Lmao one of them, using their personal voting related account, messaged me my confirmation information on Instagram for the HeadSpace app. For information, RSU was giving out free access to this app if you filled out a form. So they also violated my privacy rights by using, for their own benefit, the Instagram account name I gave them to be considered for the free app.

That is really terrible! I feel like a bunch of students reporting their experiences to the CRO will help put pressure on them, if that is something you want to do. Their email is cro@rsuonline.ca

Yup. I also got contacted by someone from ADAPT on Instagram because we used to be in the same program. Told them I voted just to get them to leave me alone ahahaha

You'd think after the last 2 years of unmitigated disaster in the RSU, they'd have learned to actually follow the rules 🙄

Wouldn't mind the complete dissolution of the RSU at this point.

Did the exact same thing, and I was contacted by several people. Considering only 600 something people voted for them, I'm pretty sure this entire election was run on the votes that came from people being asked individually.

This is beyond fucked up. I sense some ram ganesh type behaviour coming from these people and I don't like it

Oh, fun fact. This slate is pretty much the current slate in power. And the current slate in power are all pretty much friends of Ram Ganesh. It was bound to happen.
