I find that I have a lot of free time on my hands, and rather than use that to goof around and bedrot, I wanna use it to do some good and try to make student life easier!

I am someone who can bring energy to WUSA!

Patrik is running with the aim of representing the students who don’t want to think about politics. He aims to work with the rest of the Horizon team to plan for an improved Bomber lounge, implement an accessible replacement to UW Flow for students to plan their degrees, and protect student interests amidst ongoing sweeping program changes. Patrik has experience advocating for students from being VP Academic for MathSoc, and enjoys problem solving through bureaucratic molasses.

1. Expanding the Bomber to make it a lively social hub (Events, Pub, etc.)

Campus social life is a mess. The Bomber is one of the few places left on campus for students to get away from the stresses of our largely academic lives. But that space is often full, there is still a lot of work to be done. It’s time

2. Tenant’s insurance being added to WUSA’s insurance

Too often are students screwed over by greedy, uncaring landlords who take advantage of student turnover to hike up our rents; a WUSA rent tracker will make sure that corrupt landlords are named and shamed.

3. Making course ratings and perceptions public for future students

At the end of every term we are told to write course perceptions for all our courses. But why aren’t these public? Students are forced to rely on students volunteering to support UW Flow. The university needs to release the course rating data it’s been collecting from students so students can reliably make informed decisions about their academics.

I have previously been a part of various initiatives across campus to make the university more accountable from forcing the disclosing of our investment to pressuring the university to cut ties with Technion. I want to continue this fight in WUSA to make our campus not only answerable to the students but also affordable and social.

1. Campus food is not it right now. It’s overpriced, inconsistent, and too often not worth what you pay. I’m pushing for food that actually tastes good and fits a student budget, with real everyday meal options and pricing that makes sense.

2. Campus life shouldn’t feel like “go to class and go home.” WUSA services need to feel alive and student-first. I want the SLC to be a place you actually choose to stay, and the Bomber to be a real lounge with a steady flow of chill, low-cost programming and a vibe that works for everyone.

3. Fees keep creeping up and students keep getting vague explanations. That’s not okay. I’ll push for clear, public accountability on decisions and budgets, and I’ll fight fee hikes like co-op fees and other increases that hit students without real justification.

Reason why someone should vote for you in 100 words or less

Vote for me if you want direct, practical change on the stuff that affects your day to day. I’m focused on three things: making campus food taste better and cost less, building a better campus vibe by making WUSA services and SLC spaces like the Bomber actually feel student-first, and pushing back on fee hikes by demanding real transparency from the university. No fluff, no vague promises, just clear priorities and follow-through.

Things I want to complete this year

- Expansion of The Bomber (Functional charging ports, more space, opening the pub, etc.)
- Expanding WUSA Events (More free food, more exciting trips, etc...)
- Push for more affordable food on campus (Keep cheap food with the “pay what you can program”)

Reason why someone should vote for you in 100 words or less

I have had the privilege of serving as the VP of WUSA 2024-2025 and a Director of the Board 2025-2026, and even though there is a lot left to do, I believe we have improved many things compared to my first year. I am running to pass on my knowledge to the next board and be someone with experience who can help guide the next WUSA Board in the right direction.

What I helped WUSA achieve throughout the years:
- Created the Ombuds Office
- Launching Change Engine, gave thousands of dollars to students, and promoted grassroots advocacy
- Hosting the first large-scale concert at Waterloo since 2006
- New WUSA Business: Chaska and Smarty Pants
- Finalizing WUSA’s 2025–2030 Long-Range Plan
- Started doing Federal Advocacy (Through CASA)

**Rent tracker to name and shame unreasonable spikes**
Develop rent tracking for student housing, helping students make informed housing decisions and build evidence-based advocacy for housing affordability. We will hold predatory landlords to account for their exploitation of students.

**Tenants insurance to protect student property and wallets**
Provide low-cost and student-governed tenants insurance to prioritize affordability, transparency, and Waterloo students’ specific needs.

**Renegotiate UPass and expand transit coverage**
Ensure the transit pass continues to be affordable for students, and make sure the Region of Waterloo fulfills its promise of expanding frequency and coverage, including overnight bus service.

From clubs and MathSoc Council and Board to WUSA Vice-President, I know the university’s bureaucracy inside and out, and how to navigate it on behalf of students.

As WUSA VP, I travelled to Ottawa to advocate for funding for student housing as part of Build Canada Homes, and I serve as a Board Director of the biggest student housing co-operative in North America. While students are excluded from rent freezes due to frequent moving, I will push WUSA to track rent increases in student housing, and provide low-cost tenants insurance to protect students’ homes and belongings.
