Given the behaviors of left wing academics in the US, the hiring of this guy would cause me to pull funding from the U of T and avoid enrollment

This guy believes he will be freer to give his leftist comments and indoctrinate his students up here. Probably watching how police officers in Toronto defend the anti-Israel protestors helped him make this decision. This shows how we are being viewed by onlookers in other countries.

Wonderful. He will help us become a completely socialist country. The extreme right and the extreme left result in the same restrictions on the population. We just don't know in what party the extreme left are hiding.

Oh really! Here I figured that the university had more nut jobs than was needed. So goes the belief that canada is a haven for queers and nut jobs and/or criminals.

Fascism is just dandy when the Left exercises it--controlling speech in every instance so that adheres to the 'progressive' narrative, but when conservative--that is, Western--values are upheld, the lefties rant & rave--and move to the UK or Canada. The U of T does NOT need another far-left philosophy professor. In fact, much of the left-leaning garbage polluting our schools & universities originates with the American draft dodgers who flocked to Canada to avoid fighting in the Vietnam war--cowards & ingrates all of them.

So, he's okay if Canada's government is fascist and authoritarian when it comes to causes he doesn't like, and okay with Canada for encouraging Hamas, who he agrees with. Got it.
