An Edmonton law professor is threatening to sue Alberta's premier over an attack that he considers "a violent call to arms" against him, while several politicians and academics condemn the post.
On Thursday morning, a screengrab of a tweet posted by Ubaka Ogbogu was posted to Jason Kenney's Facebook page.
In his original post, the University of Alberta professor stated he would continue to wear a mask, primarily "to "spite Kenney."
"Sad to see how deranged the left has become," the premier's response said.
"This NDP law professor will wear a mask 'to spite' me. Why is everything always political to these lefties? And why is the NDP angry about getting life back to normal?"
Ogbogu demanded that Kenney delete the post and apologize.
"These attacks are actually quite dangerous and have resulted in vicious racist attacks against me in the past," he said in an interview with CTV News Edmonton.
