Kyle Steele’s Response to some of the information contained in the petition’s statement

Hi Dewey,

We are incorporated into the province, not the University, so therefor by including the faculty/staff/community members, in this kind of thing, you would be undermining the very independence of our provincial act of incorporation.  Any signatures by those who aren’t students will not be considered because those folks are not stakeholders in the ASU according to our act and according to our constitution.  Secondly, as mentioned previously, we’re more than willing to work with you within the boundaries that currently exist, as we are too far along with Tim Horton’s to go back at this point.  You may want to consider adding the fact that there may not be a coffee shop in the SUB for the next year or longer if we did not act now because we would have to start this process over at square one.
The language of your survey is also incorrect, and if you do wish to meet with us from here on in, I would suggest that you begin to get background on things before you write them and make them public (such as in the emails, especially the one to Ray Ivany).  We did release the results of the survey, unfortunately our old website was destroyed, as you know, and therefor we lost all of the stats from the official survey, however they were recorded on external media.
Once again, we are independent of the University administration and I would strongly urge you to do more research on issues before you circulate a petition outlining mostly false information.
Thank you,
Kyle Steele
