I still don't know if Matty Sears or Rick Mehta have read "Canada in Decay" by Prof. Ricardo Duchesne at UNB SJ... its a very popular book - a best-seller.
Now suspended "Indie Media Eastcoast" was a Twitter handle.. & much censored on Facebook page ( 21 bans of 30 days since Trump was elected ). Controversial topics are making a lot of people uncomfortable... but they are more interesting.
I was concerned after my experience with Mount Allison University - a campus that banned me for one year in 2016 - even though I was neither a student, staff or member of any organization on campus.
What I found interesting and still do is the climate of censorship around here.
After I found Rick on Youtube & Facebook through SAFS.ca I told him about my experience with Mount Allison University and Facebook censorship that I had also experienced. My main reason for joining Twitter was online censorship but my account was suspended in May 2018.
Rick Mehta joined Twitter in November 2017.
Its a big story in Wolfville Nova Scotia's Acadia University's academic circles as to why Rick Mehtha was really fired.
Is he a good role model for free speech? Yes. Mehta is being punished for being an advocate for free speech - its worth noting that he is still on Facebook as well.
Being critical of any 'political' movement in Canada is not a bad thing. "Decolonization" is an agenda to take away white land rights from Canadians.
As a tenured professor Mehta took to Twitter as he was concerned about campus free speech and academic freedom. To this day he has maintained his Twitter.

"Mehta was outspoken both on campus and online about a range of contentious issues including decolonization, immigration and gender politics, garnering both supporters and opposition.
He came under fire for saying multiculturalism is a scam, denying the wage gap between men and women, and dismissing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission as a vehicle for “endless apologies and compensation.”
On Twitter, he retweeted a post that said it is “statistically impossible for all Native children to have had a negative experience with residential schools.”
