Does that rule apply to people who accuse others of supporting terrorism?

How would one less very senior nuclear engineer accusing people in
other countries of terror crimes from his work email make a
difference?

There is no right in Canada or anywhere else to make accusations of
murderous crimes from your corporate email account and not have your
employer brought in to the situation.  If anyone should be
apologizing, Dr. Franta should.  Terrorists have apparently been
trying to accumulate DU as dirty bomb material years before I had
become aware of the issues with uranium toxicity publications.

That was in the 80s.  And cancer is a background effect compared to
the teratogenic mutagenicity of uranyl.
