The province’s paramedics’ union, IUOE Local 727, says it was a reckless act that could have put the men, the paramedics and their patient in danger.
They’re calling for the university to punish the pair, but it’s not clear if the men are students.
Vice-President, Students Elizabeth Yeo said they are aware of the video.
She calls the footage shocking, disappointing, and totally unacceptable.
