PSA affair
"The PSA affair was a crucial part of Simon Fraser University's early history and probably the most notorious conflict on a Canadain campus then or since. It was about radicalism, academic freedom and due process. From the beginning, one side characterized it as a political purge; but it was more complicated than that. At stake was the future of SFU: the direction the SFU adventure would take. The outcome, however, was predictable: the odds were all weighted against professors who went on strike." (Hugh Johnston; radical campus: Making Simon Fraser University. Chapter 9 The PSA Affair, pg. 293.)
