We fight, We win
A popular Canadian coffee chain has terminated the contract of one of their franchisees after video footage emerged of her performing a Nazi salute and calling for the “Final Solution” at a protest in Montreal.

The woman in question was later identified as Mai Abdullhadi, the owner of two franchises of the Second Cup Café chain located at the Jewish General Hospital in the Quebec capital.

At a pro-Palestine demonstration involving student strikers outside Concordia University on Thursday, video footage emerged of Abdullhadi making the Nazi salute.





In another video, she walked in front of a group of counter protesters on the corner of Mackay and De Maisonneuve streets and said: “The final solution is coming your way, the final solution. You know what the final solution is?”


The coffee chain said it had “zero tolerance” for hate speech, adding the “franchisee’s actions are not only a breach of our franchise agreement, but they also violate the values of inclusion and community we stand for”.

Abdullhadi was erroneously branded a “Zionist” plant on social media after some users speculated that her ownership of two kosher cafes indicated she was a Jewish provocateur inciting hate at a pro-Palestinian protest.
