When those working for public institutions are seen to be immune from consequences from abhorrent and unethical behaviour, it undermines the credibility and effectiveness of the institution they represent and government as a whole. This is amplified tenfold when it is a representative of our education system. The York Region School Board has a ZERO tolerance policy for discrimination by students and teachers, yet a School Board Trustee who is responsible for crafting said policy, is immune from it? What hypocrisy. She needs to resign immediately to avoid tarnishing her board any further.

Racism cannot be tolerated. Termination of employment is a reasonable consequence.

Unbelievable the ignorance in 2017, especially by someone involved in education. Zero tolerance means no excuses, she needs to leave.

Private apologies are not enough. Snuff out this evil mindset from being anywhere near our children.
