Description

Collin May has a Master of Theological Studies degree from Harvard, a political philosophy degree from the Ecole des hautes etudes en sciences sociales in Paris, and a law degree from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada. While at Harvard, he studied the falisifa with the world’s foremost expert on medieval Islamic philosophy, Dr. Muhsin Mahdi.On May 25, 2022, the Alberta government appointed him as the first openly gay man to serve as Chief of the Alberta Human Rights Commission and Tribunals. On September 15, 2022, he was fired by the Alberta government due to the demands of the National Council of Canadian Muslims.He was accused of ‘Islamophobia’ by the NDP citing a 13 year old academic book review that Collin wrote for a book written by Middle East Historian Efraim Karsh. They claimed the book review was “racist, Islamophobic and hateful”. Under pressure from those wielding this semantic weapon ‘Islamophobia’, the weak conservative provincial government fired him after only a few months in his new position.Join us to speak with Collin to learn the details of how this baseless and obviously politically motivated character assassination has entirely disrupted his life and his livelihood.
