FOXTROT UBC WELCOMES….

FOXTROT UBC has hired HOB as the mys­tery cor­res­pond­ent to cover the AUS elec­tion. He/she will be giv­ing us the dish on all the can­did­ates, ran­ging from the AUS Pres­id­ent race, to the Arts AMS Reps race. We look for­ward to HOB’s insights.

And they’re off!! UNDERGRAD SOCIETY ELECTIONS BEGIN

They’ve begun. We don’t think they’re as scandal-filled and excit­ing as AMS elec­tions but the two under­gradu­ate elec­tions FOXTROT will be cov­er­ing (AUS and SUS) look to be decent. We’re mainly going to cover the con­tested races. Pre­lim­in­ary thoughts post out soon.
Elias may be in Har­vard, but he’s already sal­iv­at­ing at the thought of discussing […]

Sauder Referendum Mania!

FOXTROT UBC has joined in on the dis­cus­sion on the SAUDER REFERENDUM PAGE ON FACEBOOK.
The fol­low­ing response can be found HERE.
Another ques­tion to con­sider – the CUS, as a con­stitu­ency organ­iz­a­tion, is respons­ible for stu­dent ser­vices, just like their coun­ter­parts in the SUS, AUS, and EUS. Will some of these ser­vices be cut if the […]

[EDITORIAL] Who is REALLY responsible for this outrage?!

As I con­tinue my per­sonal out­rage at the CUS and its poorly-framed ref­er­en­dum and the know-it-alls of the UBC Ven­ture Capital/Private Equity Club, I real­ize that the AMS Elec­tions are under a com­plete wreck and mess after 700+ votes were deemed invalid due to “vot­ing irreg­u­lar­it­ies.” Rather than purely con­cen­trat­ing on blam­ing the hacker, I […]

AMS ELECTION FRAUD. FOXTROTUBC REACTS.

FOXTROTUBC IS OUTRAGED BY THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING ELECTION FRAUD FOR THE AMS 2010 ELECTIONS.
We won’t reit­er­ate the details since UBC Spec­tator has a good sum­mary but there is one issue that par­tic­u­larly GRINDS OUR GEARS.
Accord­ing to elec­tions admin­is­trator ISABEL FERRERAS, “731 votes were cast from one IP address between 12:44:33 and 16:00:00 (the “Suspect […]

[INTERVIEW LEAKED] Interview with ELIAS WENTWORTH III

This douche had a strange way of impress­ing us.

Tell us about your­self.
F*ck you. My apo­lo­gies for the vul­gar lan­guage but I see that you are speech­less. My life story would have achieved the same effect, but I’ve just saved you 5 minutes of your time. You’re wel­come.
Why do you want to be a part of […]

EVERYONE DESERVES A BENTLEY: 3 RATIONALES FOR HIGHER TUITION

After numer­ous nego­ti­ations, FOXTROT UBC has hired Elias Wentworth to be a full-time blog­ger. Here is Elias’ first post of ELIASBIASES.

1. Every human has god given rights and one of them is own­ing a Bent­ley. Con­trary to what most AMS run­ning, UN motion fil­ing, lib­eral quacks believe, rais­ing tuition actu­ally improves access to higher […]

[BREAKING] CUS CAUGHT IN A PICKLE

As first SPECULATED BY FOXTROT UBC, the UBC Com­merce Under­gradu­ate Soci­ety is offi­cially in a pickle. With the government’s refusal to grant moo­lah to the new Henry Angus build­ing, as well as the government’s refusal to grant a ref­er­en­dum in con­stitu­ency fees years ago, the CUS may have to take the uncanny pos­i­tion of supporting […]

FOXTROT EXCLUSIVE: KEEPING THE UNDERGRADUATE SOCIETIES ACCOUNTABLE (CUS EDITION)

FOXTROT recently came across this sur­vey which is cir­cu­lat­ing the inter­net:

THE ANSWER IS NO! […]

Dear Elias,

Why do you intend on pick­ing a fight with this blog? Our blog is the most power­ful name in VFM. Your ana­lyses are both pom­pous and irrel­ev­ant.
