Comment: Actually, there seems evidence that rather than moving leftward, Universities have been moving more to the right than ever via  allowing more and more corporate influence via the lure of cash donations, and corporate sponsored and funded University "research centers" named after the donating corporations (e.g. Enbridge's at the U. of Calgary is just one example at one U. It's not unique). See a November, 15, 2016 Globe article entitled  "Canadian universities search for balance in accepting corporate money" for more. So much for Canadian U's being leftist bastions fomenting and fermenting socialist revolution. The corporate capitalists are taking over Universities, not the Marxists.
