Well if you look at their posts they have no problem saying Truth and Reconciliation day or International Women’s Day etc etc. I don’t care that they don’t say christmas anymore but remembrance day is like the most important day on the canadian calendar.
I think you might be reading a little too much into it. It’s just information that services will be closed that day, I see no political statement. They acknowledge it on the website: uvic.ca/…/2024+flag-lowering-remembrance-day+news
The other days you’ve mentioned are neither well known nor are they statutory holidays, so it makes sense to actually provide some context

Aka the reason this university or any of us are allowed to exist at all. “The statutory holiday”. Fuck that.

What am I missing? Remembrance day is a statutory holiday, what exactly is wrong here?
