Montrealers have been told to trust the kids clawing their way into medical schools. We are told they are the top students, the brightest minds, the ones who will one day decide who lives and who dies. Instead of preparing to save lives, some of them were busy running a hate filled cesspool on Discord where Jews were mocked, Hitler was idolized and terror groups were celebrated.
The server was exposed by The Montreal Gazette in May, it was called MEDServeur and it ballooned to over fourteen hundred members, most of them applicants to medical schools in Quebec, along with a number of current students. They swapped advice on tests and essays in one breath and in the next they vomited out filth about Jews, women, Black people and gay people. The posts were public, wide open for anyone to see, and they were disgusting. Jokes about Anne Frank hiding in the attic. “Gas the rat in the attic” one post sneered. Holocaust denial was routine. Some praised the final solution. Others fantasized about doxxing and hunting Jews in the streets of Montreal. One even declared love for ISIS.
This was not one or two bad apples. It went on for months with dozens of participants. Screenshots gathered by watchdog doctors show the forum’s moderators letting the bile run unchecked. One of those moderators was named in the press as a Dawson College student who then marched straight into the Université de Sherbrooke’s medical program. His name appeared in community reports and he has denied using slurs himself, but the receipts tell a different story. He was in charge of a space that churned out the kind of rhetoric that would get any normal applicant blacklisted for life. Instead, Sherbrooke let him in this August with a white coat and a stethoscope.
Dawson College was forced to admit that one of its medal winning students had been linked to the server. The lieutenant governor’s office even looked into revoking his youth medal. Still, Dawson has stayed silent on whether the student was disciplined. Sherbrooke ran what it called an investigation and then confirmed that the student had been admitted anyway. The higher education minister at the time called the posts unacceptable and urged anyone with information to cooperate with police. Then the issue faded from the news and the universities carried on as if nothing had happened.
Think of the arrogance. Jewish physicians in Quebec report a flood of abuse since the October massacres in Israel. Nearly half say they have been targeted inside hospitals, mocked or ostracized by colleagues. Patients have seen mezuzahs ripped from doorframes and heard staff muttering anti Jewish slurs in corridors. Into that poisonous atmosphere the universities are feeding new recruits who once thought Hitler jokes were a clever way to pass the time online.
The watchdog group Doctors Against Racism and Antisemitism went public with a dossier in May. They published screenshots, translated the worst of the bile and sent formal warnings to every Canadian medical school. Their message was simple. These people are unfit to practice medicine. They are a danger to patients. The schools ignored it. Sherbrooke admitted the lead moderator. Laval, McGill, Université de Montréal have all refused to say if they had applicants tied to the server. Nobody has released numbers, no one has named sanctions, no one has promised that future doctors who praise Hitler will be shown the door.
This is not a victimless scandal. Jews in Montreal already face violence on the streets and harassment in schools. Now they are expected to sit in waiting rooms not knowing if the doctor about to examine them once posted that Anne Frank deserved to die. These are not just stupid jokes. They are evidence of a deep rot in a profession that demands trust and decency.
The Collège des médecins du Québec has stayed quiet, hiding behind procedures. They have not issued a single statement saying that glorifying the extermination of Jews is incompatible with medical ethics. They have not promised to review the admissions pipeline. They have not promised that doctors in training who trafficked in hate will be pulled from the system. They have done nothing.
So here we are. A province that claims to value diversity and compassion is about to graduate doctors who cut their teeth on Jew hating forums. Parents in Montreal who send their kids to the hospital have no way of knowing if the smiling young doctor at the bedside once spent his nights calling for ovens. And the universities, the government and the medical regulator are fine with that. They think it is old news. They think Montrealers will forget.
Do not forget. The names are out there. The moderator who let the server run free is walking the halls at Sherbrooke. Dawson’s medal winner was part of it. Screenshots exist. Police complaints were filed. There are receipts. Yet not one institution has barred these people from medicine. That is the scandal. It is not just that a bunch of stupid kids shared Nazi memes. It is that Quebec’s medical schools saw the evidence, heard the outrage and still handed them white coats.
The fact that these upcoming doctors will hold the power to decide who gets treated and who dies makes going to a Quebec hospital a game of Russian Roullete for Jews and other minorities. That should put the chills down anyone’s spine.
