Cancelled by Israel: Canada human rights pro Birju Dattani speaks out | The Marc Steiner Show
Birju Dattani's tenure as Canada's chief human rights commissioner was short-lived. After holding the post for less than a year, Dattani was forced to resign by a smear campaign targeting him for his social media posts criticizing Israel. Now, Dattani is suing his critics, and joins The Marc Steiner Show to discuss his case and the wider implications for human rights and free speech in countries backing Israel's genocide of Palestinians.
