The University of Calgary is investigating an incident captured on social media that appeared to show students marching through a university residence impersonating Adolf Hitler.

A video sent to Global News shows seven young men of apparently varying ethnicities exiting an elevator, marching across a floor with a stiff-armed salute used by the Nazi regime, shouting “Heil Hitler” and “Make way for Hitler” before going down a set of stairs. On a lower floor, the young men repeated the salute and shouts before exiting into another stairwell in laughter.

Quick throwback to the last few weeks of my MBA last spring

Brew and Blendz doesn’t taste very good, but as the only coffee shop in the vicinity of the Business building, it had to do

Students at the University of Calgary held a vocal, passionate demonstration Friday during a vote by the school's board on tuition increases.

Students pounded on windows and chanted outside the room where the U of C's board of governors voted to approve another tuition increase.

The increase comes as students say they're struggling to pay for rent and food amid a fourth consecutive tuition increase. Some are deep in debt and say it's getting in the way of their education.

"This is reaching a breaking point and students are in crisis," said Isabelle Reynolds, a third-year law student who attended the demonstration. She works with a student-led project that addresses food insecurity and says there's extreme strain on resources.

"I don't wanna see my community members go hungry. I don't wanna see more students drop out because they can't afford higher education." [...]

Mateusz Salmassi, the Students' Union external vice-president, said the union collected numbers and found that 67 per cent of students say the increases will result in moderate or extreme strain on their finances.

"Students are in a lot of pain … those numbers are unprecedented. We're talking about young Albertans, and I think that they [the board] should feel a very large amount of shame. I think they should be very ashamed of themselves." [...]

The Anti-Defamation League has called Mohammed El-Kurd an “unvarnished, vicious antisemite.” Yet in spite of widely available evidence attesting to his prominence as a hatemonger, Mount Royal University in Canada chose to award the writer with the 2023 Calgary Peace Prize.

Now the International Legal Forum (ILF) has sent a letter urging the reversal of this decision.

It said: “His past statements go above and beyond any acceptable criticism of Israel, principles of free speech or the advancement of Palestinian rights. Instead, they represent an unhinged display of bigotry, use of antisemitic tropes and both the incitement and glorification of violence.”

ILF further pointed out how El-Kurd’s statements violated the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism.

Some of the statements El-Kurd has made over the years include calling Zionists “sadistic barbaric neo-Nazi pigs” who have “completely internalized the ways of the Nazis.” He also said that he fantasized about this fate: “I hope every one of them dies in the most torturous & slow ways. I hope that they see their mothers suffering.”

El-Kurd is a Palestinian writer and poet based out of Sheik Jarrah in eastern Jerusalem.

According to the Calgary Peace Prize site, in 2021, He was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME magazine.
