The School Resource Officer (SRO) program in Toronto was scraped November 2017 led by my trustee at the time, Marit Stiles, now leader of the Ontario NDP. This was a lost opportunity for police to build a positive image with the students especially those in trouble with the law. It further exploited the notion of police as the enemy to be avoided at all costs. Talking to teachers currently working for the TDSB, the situation is a free-for-all with good kids often at the mercy of the ruling lawlessness.
"When misguided public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what is honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what is useful, applauds falsehood and smothers truth under indifference or insult, a nation turns its back on progress and can be restored only by the terrible lessons of catastrophe." ~ Frederic Bastiat
Time for a mood lifter. Watch as these miserable, evil police officers observe some highschoolers performing in a public square, and KEEP WATCHING to see what they do . . .
The Saanich school district maintains its police liaison program, while the neighbouring Victoria school board cancelled theirs last year, to great outcry.

That was absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing. I needed that. It was better than a double dose of valium.
TO school boards controlled by woke radical ndpers are unacceptable.
