He was a prolific scholar-activist internationally recognized for his scholarship and solidarity with migrant, Indigenous, Palestinian, and anti-colonial struggles. Choudry was an associate professor in the Department of Integrated Studies in Education at McGill University and an organizer of popular education initiatives through the Immigrant Workers Centre in Montreal.

Surveillance by New Zealand Security Intelligence Service
In 1996, two SIS agents broke into the home of Aziz Choudry. Choudry was an organiser with GATT Watchdog, which was holding a public forum and rally against an APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) Trade Ministers meeting hosted in Christchurch.[4] It was one of the high-profile cases of misconduct by SIS that went to Court. The Court of Appeal ruled that the SIS had exceeded their legislated powers of interception.[5] Parliament later amended the SIS Act to give the SIS powers of entry into private property.
