On May Day, 2024, a justice of the Quebec Superior Court dismissed an application by two students at McGill University for an injunction barring five pro-Palestinian student groups from protesting on the university's campus. Dimitri Lascaris discussed this development with geopolitical analyst Leith Marouf, who is currently based in Beirut, Lebanon. Years ago, Marouf was himself an outspoken critic of Israel when he was elected to the Student Union of Concordia University in Montreal, and was suspended by that institution for his pro-Palestinian activism.
