The telecommunications consultant who originally exposed antisemitic Twitter posts by former federal contractor Laith Marouf has told the House of Commons Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage that knowledge of Marouf’s conduct was well-known throughout the federal government prior to funding being pulled, but action on the matter was not taken until media reported on it.
“Too many people in Ottawa knew about this funding and didn’t act on the information and didn’t speak out,” wrote Mark Goldberg, a consultant from Thornhill, Ont., in a written submission to the committee, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.
