Unite Ryerson’s VP education candidate has been under fire for applauding the killing of New York police officers on social media. “Is it bad of me that I applaud the killing of the two cops in NYC?” he posted to his private Facebook account.
He also wrote “Cops got killed? Good. It’s a false flag operation resulting in cops dying? Good. #Brooklyn” in a tweet on his private Twitter account.Of the posts, Mohamed said: “The killing of all these innocent black people was very hard for me because I also suffer from racial profiling. I categorically, unequivocally condemn the use of violence in any situation and the harm of innocent people.”

2.Lobby to decrease financial document fees and increase members in financial aid offices
3.Create a mutually beneficial relationship between the Canadian Federation of Students and the RSU -
