MPs satisfied with responses to query about antisemitism addressal on university campuses

The five members of parliament who questioned Canadian universities about the measures in place to address antisemitism say that they are satisfied with what they heard. MPs Anthony Housefather, David Lametti, Marco Mendicino, Anna Gainey, and Ben Carr canvassed the leaders of several Canadian universities after receiving concerned messages from Jewish students and faculty. Housefather indicated that “all 27 confirmed that a call for the genocide of Jews violates their codes of conduct, irrespective of context.” Lametti added that while the “quality of responses varied,” the “vast majority of universities provided detailed and comprehensive responses.”
