An artist-in-residence at a veterinary college on Prince Edward Island has received an apology after being ousted from his position due to the political tone of his recent work, particularly one painting.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/prince-edward-island/pei-avc-apologizes-1.7507766The position of artist-in-residence was an unpaid one but the college was apparently unhappy with the artist's work, which could be construed as anti-American amidst the controversy over Trump.
In a rare move for CBC, they actually allow comments under this story. For the past couple of years, virtually every article - and YouTube video - has prohibited comments. The only times I've seen comments under their stories (or videos) in recent years are ones that seemed unlikely to stoke any sort of controversy.
