Former Miss Slovakia says Uber driver kicked her out on busy intersection for being Jewish

Mattova said the female driver then abruptly slammed on her brakes and told her to get out of the car at a busy intersection.

"I immediately ended my call and asked, like, why they're stopping. And they told me that they feel uncomfortable with me in the car," Mattova said. "So I asked why, because I didn't do anything wrong. And then I got an answer that they don't drive Jewish people."

An Uber spokesperson told Fox News Digital that the company has reached out to both parties as part of its review of the incident.

"We're sorry for the experience this rider reported. Discrimination has no place on our platform, and we take concerns like this very seriously. We've been in contact with both the rider and the driver to understand from each of them what happened and have taken appropriate action."

"Canada has always been a place I believed in. That's the reason why I moved back here. And welcoming, diverse, respectful. And we all share responsibility to ensure it stays that way. And speaking up isn't about me playing a victim role. I just want to make that very clear. It's about drawing a line and standing in our truth and inspiring that hatred against any religion or community, not just the Jewish people," said Mattova. "And I think that every incident like this should have consequences, in this case for the driver and for the large company, called Uber."

"We've demanded they terminate the relationship with the driver, and they've refused to respond to that at all. They claim privacy, which is absolute nonsense," Levitt said. "First of all, no one even knows the driver's name, so there's no privacy issue. And secondly, most decent companies are anxious to tell the world that they would fire someone like that."

Mattova traveled to Israel in early November to witness the horrors of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led terrorist attacks in southern Israel. She visited Kibbutz Be'eri and spoke with former hostage Ofir Engel, who was kidnapped along with his girlfriend's father.

She told Fox News Digital that this is not the first antisemitic incident she has faced in Canada, and wants people to "stand tall and address modern antisemitism."
