@cbcnews: History professor Timothy Snyder says classes in the U.S. are being cancelled for talking about the ‘wrong kind of history.’ After more than two decades at Yale, the author and historian recently moved to Canada to spearhead a new course at the University of Toronto on the legacy of authoritarianism, called Hitler and Stalin Today. For The National, CBC’s Eli Glasner met up with Snyder to ask him about the impact of the Trump administration’s policies on academia and the potential fallout for education in the U.S. You can watch the full conversation on CBC The National’s YouTube channel. #news #education #History #professor #univeristy #uoft #yale #trump

I have a masters degree from the US and I’m in an undergrad program at UBC in Vancouver. Canadian schools are way better than the US.

Ah man don’t let the conservatives see this! According to them, Canada is a communist hellscape where you’re not allowed to say anything.

Just a reminder, Pierre Poilievre wanted to do the same to Canadian institutions as the Trump Admin is doing.

75% wants to get out of USA. It is because they do understand the seriousness of what's going on in USA.

I studied culture and history, I find myself sometimes teaching very basic humanities concepts to people who are supposed to be well-educated (Engineers, doctors, administrators etc.). There is a reason why social scientists call for humanities and social sciences to be taught at business and engineering schools. It is critical that the people who shape the world understand societies.

If ever a clear sign of an authoritatarian fascist government, it's this. Censorship & control by Trump over what subjects can be discussed in an educational setting. What's happened to Free speech? It's in the Constitution. 1st Amendment.
