Overview
Malcolm Ross (born May 1946) is a Canadian former schoolteacher from Moncton, New Brunswick, who became notable for his antisemitic writings, including Holocaust denial.
Early life
Malcolm Ross was born in May, 1946, in Winnipeg, Manitoba. His father was a Presbyterian minister. The family moved to Newcastle, New Brunswick, when Ross was young, and he graduated from high school there. In 1968, he graduated from the University of New Brunswick with a Bachelor of Education. In 1976, Ross began teaching at Magnetic Hill School.
Published books
In 1978, he published his first book titled, Web of Deceit. In the book, Ross attacked the diary of Anne Frank and declared the Holocaust a hoax. In 1983, Ross published a book titled, The Real Holocaust: The Attack on Unborn Children and Life Itself, which combined anti-abortion views with antisemitism and holocaust denial. In 1988, he published Spectre of Power, which spoke of his experiences with critics.
Human rights complaint
In 1991, a local Jewish parent, David Attis, filed a human rights complaint against Ross's employers, New Brunswick School District 15, on the grounds that Ross's continued employment created a poisoned environment for Jewish students (including Attis's daughter, who, although not a student at Magnetic Hill School where Ross taught, had been intimidated out of attending interscholastic activities at Magnetic Hill).
