Uptown Waterloo and the University District were alive with people enjoying Wilfrid Laurier University’s annual Homecoming weekend.
Despite a rocky start during orientation week with several gatherings and incidents, we saw improvement during Homecoming.
Community partners continue joint effort to end unsanctioned gatheringsLocal community partners continue to work together to end the unsafe and unsanctioned street gatherings that have once again been occurring in the region’s university district. The work of Region of Waterloo Paramedic Services, the City of Waterloo, Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS), and emergency services partners, together with Wilfrid Laurier University and the University of Waterloo to ensure the safety of students and community members has become even more significant with the current challenges local hospitals are facing.
