The university’s president says McGill will still consider divesting from weapons manufacturers, but said it has become clear talks with the activists are going nowhere

McGill University says it is ending negotiations with pro-Palestinian activists who are occupying the lower field of its downtown Montreal campus.

“As it has become clear that no fruitful outcome will result from these talks, we are ceasing discussions.” Saini said the university will move ahead with its proposal, despite the failure of the negotiations. But McGill had also offered amnesty to students and staff participating in the encampment, which is now off the table. “As our proposal was rejected, the university will pursue disciplinary processes against individuals participating in the encampment to the full extent outlined in our policies,” the statement reads.
