VANCOUVER, BC: The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (www.jccf.ca) has issued a demand letter to the President of the University of British Columbia (“UBC”), warning that UBC will face legal action if it does not rescind its cancellation of a planned event featuring journalist Andy Ngo discussing Antifa violence.
In November 2019, The Free Speech Club, a student group at UBC, organized an event entitled “Understanding ANTIFA Violence” featuring Andy Ngo at UBC’s Robson Square campus, to take place on January 29, 2020.
Antifa, short for “anti-fascist,” is a loosely organized coalition of left-wing activists and self-described communist anarchists who use direct action, including vandalism, physical violence, threats, cyber attacks, and blockades, often to shut down events or protest opinions they oppose. Antifa protestors typically dress in black and wear masks to hide their faces.
Andy Ngo is a well-known journalist who frequently reports on Antifa protests and violence. His work has made him a target of Antifa. In June 2019, Mr. Ngo was violently attacked while documenting an Antifa protest in Portland, Oregon. Andy Ngo, who is of Vietnamese heritage and openly gay, is currently editor at large for The Post Millennial, a Canadian news website.
