Toronto City Hall along with Vancouver City and Victoria has voted in favour of demanding an apology from Maclean’s for publishing the ‘Too Asian’ article. The article talks about increasing competition at major universities created by Asian students who party less and study more. These students are aforementioned to stick to their own Asian groups and not mingle with other students on campus. Other “white” students believe that they take away from the undergrad university experience and therefore avoid these schools. The apparent solution is limiting Asian enrolment in top academia schools. Such proposed racial discrimination at an institution that is above all to serve the purpose of higher education is what many people are appalled about.
