Should the Surrey Board of Trade withdraw its invite to Robert F Kennedy Jr?

An American environmentalist will speak at the Surrey Board of Trade later this year but his stance on vaccinations has prompted a social media backlash and demands for his keynote address to be cancelled.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is scheduled to speak at a conference about the environment. Doctors, public health experts and parents are taking to Twitter to object to Kennedy’s invitation.

Surrey Board of Trade CEO Anita Huberman says they have no plans to cancel his keynote because the event will not feature any discussion of vaccinations. Here’s Huberman speaking to Simi on the Jon McComb Show in the past hour.
