Ruth Marshall

Ruth Marshall is an associate professor at the University of Toronto specializing in religious studies and politics. She was recently placed on administrative leave following a controversial social media post that criticized the assassination of right-wing commentator Charlie Kirk. Her remarks, which included the statement that 'shooting is honestly too good for so many of you,' drew significant backlash, leading to intervention from the Ontario Minister of Colleges and Universities, Nolan Quinn, who emphasized the need for respectful debate in academic settings.
