Anti-drinking ad in York U women's washroom blasted for being sexist


With frosh week just days away and campus already buzzing with students getting ready for a new academic year, a poster in the women's washroom at the York University Student Centre is drawing fire from critics who say it pushes a sexist message. The controversial ad was in the York University Student Centre women's bathroom. In 2015, two months after allegedly being attacked by a fellow student, Gray stopped attending the school because she said York University couldn't guarantee her safety. Mandi Gray, who was at the centre of a high-profile sexual assault case at York University, is pictured with her dog CeCe.
