Peto's University of Toronto thesis

Contrary to Eli Rubenstein's op-ed, it is not the Holocaust survivors that will bear the greatest burden of Peto's mistakes but the University of Toronto. They used to be known as the best university in Canada. Now they are known as the place where Israel Apartheid Week began and where Master's and undoubtedly other exams and papers are graded according to their politicization, not their facts and analysis. Quite obviously professors are hired according to their political agenda, not their scholarship. The University of Toronto will now attract more and more activist students and professors who are interested in pushing their political agendas, not learning about facts, analysis, or our system of law and democracy. The University of Toronto has entered the slippery slope of decreasing prestige and scholarship.
