Saturday afternoon, dozens of students, faculty and their supporters rallied at the Waterloo post-secondary against a requirement to mask up to attend campus. Wilfred Laurier University dropped its mandatory vaccination policy in May 2022.

Laurier’s steadfast adherence to public masking makes the school an outlier within the city. Waterloo Regional Council ended the municipal masking mandate on March 21, 2022.
