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-1.7507766

The 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.
