President conveys sympathies to victims in New Zealand

March 15, 2019 — 

On behalf of the University of Manitoba community, I convey deepest sympathies to the families and friends of those killed so brutally in the terrorist attacks at the Al Noor Mosque and the Linwood Islamic Centre Christchurch, New Zealand. Our thoughts are with the people of New Zealand as we stand together with them to condemn racial hatred and violence.

-David Barnard, President and Vice-Chancellor


The University of Manitoba will lower the flag over the Administration Building in memory of the victims.
