Some people will always believe they are above other individuals and racist. Shame on this woman for being stuck on the past and dehumanizing someone else. She needs to be let go for her actions.

YRDSB trustee Nancy Elgie must removed totally from Ontario school system and should no longer be able to make decisions related to YRDSB or kids in school system. ..when a person in authority make such racism hurtful comments of any kind to another human such individual should not be paid by public funds. ..same individual must resign immediately or terminated from public office. ...theirs also need for an integrity commissioner for YRDSB to ensure same don't occurs in further.

The moment that word came out of her mouth she should of been suspended. Now she should be fired !! We live in Canada and this behaviour should never be accepted or tolerated!

No one should be in a position to influence our children if they cannot control their own bigotry. Please do the decent thing and resign. Your example is unacceptable.

Unacceptable. And the apology, baseless. Zero tolerance for attitudes like this.

No one in charge of the welfare of students of all races should ever say let alone think something that. I'm unclear why anyone would believe it's in the public's and children's interests for her to keep her in this job.

Every individual should feel safe in their educational environment. This is grossly inappropriate behaviour and there must be consequences.

This is disgraceful. Elgie should not be involved in the educational sector in any capacity.
