"Deport them all": McMaster professor under fire for comment about pro-Palestinian protest

A prominent cardiologist, Dr. Eva Lonn, at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont. is under review by the university for comments made on social media about a pro-Palestinian protest, calling for rallygoers to be deported.

“The post does not align with our values in advancing inclusive excellence or responsibilities as healthcare educators and professionals,” reads an emailed statement from a McMaster University spokesperson. “This matter is being reviewed by the university in alignment with university policies and will be addressed promptly and according to these policies. All parties involved have the right to confidentiality. As such, employment matters are not discussed on a specific case basis.”

Dr. Lonn is the medical director of cardiac health and rehabilitation at McMaster University, as well as a professor of medicine at the university’s medical school. The seasoned medical practitioner commented on a New York Post article on LinkedIn, about a pro-Palestinian protest in Brooklyn, New York, writing “deport them all to where they came from.”
