The Canadian government has not forbidden posts about Gad Saad's book. Facebook had announced in June that they would block all links to Canadian news because of a new legislation that would add fees for such links. https://about.fb.com/news/2023/06/changes-to-news-availability-on-our-platforms-in-canada/ Gad Saad's post was blocked because it includes such a link.

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1695923190248165441
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
