(Toronto Sun) Jewish members of one of Canada’s largest public service unions are alarmed over concerning tweets by a union employee — an individual with a history of antisemitic social media posts.
A letter to Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) leadership from public servant Chelsea Rosen described social media posts by PSAC senior negotiator Hassan Husseini as both disturbing and unacceptable — and demanded the union take action.
“PSAC should hold its employees to a high standard, both in and outside the workplace,” read the letter, obtained by the Toronto Sun.
“A union is meant to represent all members, regardless of background, and provide a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Sadly, Mr. Husseini’s behavior is actively contributing to an environment where Jewish members feel unsafe and unrepresented.”
