A philanthropist who donated $30 million to the University of Manitoba is condemning what he says was a “hateful” and “anti-Semitic” speech made by the valedictorian of the medical school that bears the name of his Jewish father.
Billionaire Ernest Rady, who was born in Winnipeg and graduated from the University of Manitoba, says he is “hurt and appalled” by the remarks made by the valedictorian at the May 16 convocation for students from the Max Rady College of Medicine.
