SFU lecturer temporarily replaced by substitute after sending offensive rant to class by email

A Simon Fraser University computer science lecturer has been replaced by a temporary substitute instructor after sending his students an email titled “My Statement on the Insanity of Transgender Marxist Divide and Conquer Cultural Weapon.” Castanet and City News report that the email contained anti-feminist and anti-trans statements and compared his students to “little elementary school child[ren]” if they chose to bring up his email to administration. SFU was made aware of the email and has responded with a statement, asserting: “These values do not represent those of the university, and we want to assure you that the matter is under review.”
