Don’t Forget Le Frigo
Like many Concordia fee levy groups, Le Frigo Vert is an important part of our campus community.
They provide affordable and unique products that enhance the quality and diversity of food and health options for all Concordia students.
In this day and age of Chartwells and Tim Horton’s, it is important for Concordia to support the campus community services that offer healthier and more sustainable products, often at a lower cost.
Concordia’s community is unique, in that it is graced with many amazing fee levy groups. These groups provide important services to students and their mandates aim to fight against injustice, poverty and systemic social issues.
Groups like Le Frigo Vert invigorate our environment by creating an alternative to fast-food chains and overpriced “green” products. This, in turn, contributes to the furthering of awareness, knowledge and opportunity to spread more socially conscious models in our campus and in our society.
Oftentimes, the hard work of these groups is overlooked, even while their services are offered at a fraction of the actual cost.
Considering this, I encourage all Concordia students to vote yes to Le Frigo Vert’s referendum question in the upcoming election on March 20, 21 and 22.
Voting yes to Le Frigo Vert means having an accessible food co-op on campus (free coffee for strikers!) but it also means supporting a group that works hard to make Concordia a better place for all of us.
