After Con U's first move, Canadian universities make plans to leave student federation.

Student unions across Canada are fed up with its dose of politics.

In a report by The Link, 16 Universities are mobilizing to leave the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS). 

The federation brings together over 80 post-secondary school student unions to make high quality education accessible.

But former Dawson student union executive Nicholas Di Penna says it has too many flaws to continue working within the federation, citing issues dealing with finance and setting ground rules.

He adds that internal reforms were impossible to achieve because of political gain.

Di Penna hopes to have participating schools ready for the mass exodus between now and next year.

This isn't the first time schools attempted to leave the federation.

The Concordia Student Union joined forces with Graduate Student counterpart to file a lawsuit against the federation for not recognizing Concordia's appeal in 2008.

A court date set for hearing in 2015.
