One of the best universities in Canada. I have studied in 3 myself, and have family members in other, and I can definitely tell that this university holds one of the best faculty and staff members as well as students. It just needs more opportunities coming its way.

U of M is pleasant. It feels safe. All of the facilities seemed good. The food was good depending on where on campus you went. I thought St. Paul's college had the best food. The lecture halls all seem to be modern. Some of the smaller classrooms kind of suck. Its location was safe too, in a good part of the city. The gym is nice and well equipped

The philosophy department is very toxic and hostile toward other philosophy departments. Rhonda Martens, department head, is a stalker. She has a "subdepartment" with other profs and has the motto of "bullying the brightest" - either destroy their confidence or their character.
