The following is a statement from Principal Daniel Woolf:

I wish to congratulate Sophie Kiwala on her election as the new member of provincial parliament for Kingston and the Islands. I look forward to working with her on issues that affect Queen’s, our students, our community, and the post-secondary education sector in Ontario.

I would also like to congratulate Queen’s alumna, Premier Kathleen Wynne, on her re-election. I look forward to continuing to work with her on the important issues facing the post-secondary sector, including maintaining education quality, addressing budget constraints, and our ongoing pension challenges.

I thank all of the candidates who put their names forward in this election.
