Academic targeted by racist messages following criticism of Alberta's pandemic response


An Edmonton academic says he's received racist messages in the wake of publicly criticizing the province's response to COVID-19. Earlier this week, Ubaka Ogbogu was interviewed for a CBC story about secret recordings of the province's Emergency Operation Centre daily meetings. He described the province's pandemic response as being "in tatters." On Saturday, Ogbogu shared a recording of a message left on his office voicemail on Twitter. Ogbogu said he's used to receiving angry messages for the positions he takes, but this was much more hateful than normal.
