does this mean everyone that holds a Ryerson diploma or degree is tainted?

Of course it does...all get cancelled.

BTW have we exhumed any of those 'burial' sites to fully rule-in concluded atrocities?
...don't want to fly off any handles and make unwarranted pronouncements of national genocide programs.

Don't know. Did your primary school have a cemetery on the grounds? Mine didn't.

I assume the Ryerson 1280AM call letters CJRU will be changed too. I've never looked into this so I'm wondering, what is the process for changing call letters.. a lengthy one?

If the new name starts with an R, there will be no need to change the call letters.

I wouldn't be surprised if they go for Rogers University given the number of buildings that alraedy have that name. (I'm half-serious)

It's so stupid an idea that it just might happen. I wouldn't bet against it.

Given that Ted Rogers has legitimately passed away, it doesn't surprise me one bit if Ted gets his own statue on the property. CJRU would get to keep their R. lol
