I was Fired From My University Post For Standing Up For Israel: An Insightful Conversation With Professor Paul Finlayson

In the aftermath of Gaza's attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, Paul FInlayson, a non-Jewish professor at the University of Guelph-Humber, took to social media with a fiery defence of Jerusalem and rhetorical attack on Palestinian terrorism.That didn't sit well with others, who soon launched a coordinated effort that resulted in Finlayson's suspension, and in recent days, the formal termination of his employment.Critics have said what happened to Finlayson is an assault both on free expression and academic freedoms, but beyond selective coverage in a handful of outlets, Canadians would be hard-pressed to see any mention of his saga in major newspapers and broadcasters.
