The Philippine government has blocked Nobel Peace Prize winning journalist Maria Ressa from travelling to Toronto, according to Massey College.

Ressa shared a draft of her speech with the Star, noting she’s been a journalist for 36 years.

Ressa has recently tweeted about needing court approval to travel internationally. In an email to the Star, she said: “It was part of a trip that I should have received approval for because I’ve proven repeatedly that I’m no flight risk.” “There’s a certain randomness to whether I get my rights nowadays,” wrote Ressa in the advance copy of her Massey College speech sent to the Star. “For no understandable reason, I’ve lost my right to travel again. I think — like the exponential online attacks against me and the weaponization of the law — these events are meant to tear down my spirit. It makes it incredibly difficult to plan a life, to see my family, to do my job.
