The University of Toronto says pro-Palestinian protesters who set up camp on campus more than a month ago have rejected a proposal similar to what protesters at other schools have accepted.

A Palestinian flag flies over the pro-Palestinian encampment set up at the University of Toronto campus, in Toronto, Sunday, May 26, 2024.

U of T has said it will not, however, cut ties with Israeli universities, as protesters have demanded. Protesters said they were joining students at other universities in Canada and the United states in setting up camps to call on their schools to disclose ties with the Israeli government, divest from Israeli companies and terminate partnerships with Israeli academic institutions that operated under parameters they opposed.
