In 2018, the newspaper published an op-ed written by and an interview with the president of the National Socialist Canadian Labour Revival Party, a neo-Nazi group.

In June 2020, Slatz was arrested in New York under suspicion of having violated a curfew while she was covering Manhattan protests related to the killing of George Floyd. She was charged for disorderly conduct, among other crimes, and spent two days in custody. The charges were later dismissed at the request of the Manhattan District Attorney's office.[2][11]

Following the publication of a video showing pro-J. K. Rowling activist Chris Elston following a transgender activist woman in the street and asking her about "gender ideology", Slatz stated that Elson's actions were not "activism", but a "theater".[3] In 2023, Slatz shared a video produced by ThePrint in which Indian men stated that women who dress provocatively are "inviting" rape. "I can’t think of a single valid reason for any woman to visit India," she said.[12]
