“We have zero tolerance for this on our campus or in our community,” said president Philip Steenkamp. “At Royal Roads we stand against all forms of hate and we denounce racism in all its ugly forms.”

On Thursday, racist graffiti was spotted at a construction site near West Shore Parkway and Constellation Avenue in Langford.
