Mai Abdulhadi is the woman who was seen hailing Hitler and calling for the Final Solution at the violent protests in Montreal. Abdulhadi was the franchisee of a Canadian coffee chain called Second Cup which she operated in the Jewish General Hospital. The Jewish General Hospital was founded by the Montreal Jewish community in response to Jewish exclusion and an antisemitic incident called the “Day of Shame”. The fact that the Jewish General Hospital was established on principles of inclusion and equality because of Jewish discrimination, and someone like Mai Abdulhadi was able to sneak her way in, is ironic and deeply troubling. There should be no space for people like that in institutions literally created to heal, help, and protect all people.
