“Even if the curriculum were 100% activities based on “anti-racism” they would still complain more was needed. And these activists will never admit for one second that any of their ill-conceived reforms are not working.”

The school system has been hijacked.

The anti racists are the true racists and they have no idea how much they will be hated once more people wake up to their self-serving identity politics.

The saddest result of their presence in schools is the censorship of speech. If you question these intellectual tykes, you get in trouble.

Great. As an ACTUAL descendant of black slaves whose ancestor came to Lower Canada from Barbados in 1837 and lived a full and prosperous life in Canada I can state with authority the Toronto Star's article assertions are bullshit. Also, wrt to the recent TDSB woke teaching guide (the one apparently now retracted), I will be writing my local board the OCDSB to ensure they are not using similar socially poisonous documents in THEIR teaching training.

Those TO school boards are woke-captured and corrupt - terrible. All the best!

Thanks. I don't know what kind of response I will get, but I can always do a FOIA submission based around woke keywords exemplified by that TDSB document and see what is there. I will start with a friendly but direct letter.

You will likely find the documents in plain sight on their websites. They don't hide them. Check their equity resources webpages. It's all there for our board, TVDSB. We all need to contact our schools after Lecce's comments: "Schools are a place for learning life and job skills, above all else,” said Lecce. “My message to school boards is clear: there is no place for divisive ideologies — every action they take should prioritize and support academic achievement.”

Thanks, good point. What I am not sure about though it what is being taught TO teachers internally, on PD days and the like, which from what I can tell, is often not communicated to the public. That crazy racist TDSB document I am pretty sure was only meant for internal consumption, but the cat got out of the bag. I'd like to know what, if anything, the OCDSB is using internally only, in the same racist vein.

I am writing a letter to my MP Ben Lobb to let him know that the seeds of destruction are being sewed by some very very unhappy folk in good old Conservative Ontario (grey bruce) the Conservative Party had best think about holding a leadership review unless they wish to loose big at the next election. people are fed up with Dougie having put his finger into too many pies i.e. land grab.

For sure we will see the Libs taking many votes unless there is change at the top.

But I agree there are most likely more voters pissed at what is happening in our schools. So get on it Dougie

I'm hugely disappointed that Ford has shown himself to be so cowardly and weak. If CONSERVATIVES don't fight this, who will?

Really hope he's turning.

Back when we were the 3rd country in space and gave the ussr over 1000 tanks in WWII, they taught uncle Thomas's cabin and the under ground rail road.

Now with all the woke crap we theoretically have to import people to build batteries in Canada and housing is insane.

"stolen people on stolen land" follow the money it takes to create "curriculum" that is straight out racist! re: stolen land (a native view point) comment: many casinos go on native reserves (possibly tax free) one told me they gave away 600 million in the first 6 years of operation, you can buy a lot of education institutions with that, in fact they will get people highly addicted to it, if it is not stopped.
