There is no place for racism in the public school system or anywhere for that matter. Any for of racism must NOT be tolerated.

There is no place for the use of this word by anyone ever. Nancy Elgie should have her mouth washed out with soap and made to publicly beg forgiveness from the entire community. Shameful behaviour.

Shameful! No one in a position of educating the youth of Canada should be so bigoted or closed minded. And if they are, they should not be in any position of power.

This is unacceptable. Trustee Elgie needs to step down or be removed from office immediately. York school board needs to do some serious work about its racism problems.

Heinous. Unacceptable for a blatant racist to hold a position as school trustee. Nancy Elgie should resign immediately.

A private apology is not enough, this woman's actions require an immediate resignation, failing that being terminated.

There should be no tolerance for this type of ignorance in our school system.

This is horrendous. People who work with children especially in education must lead by example. I will not stand by and allow this woman to continue spewing and teaching hate in my school district.

It is unacceptable that anyone use this term. And extraordinarily unacceptable for someone who is a trustee to our students. She must be fired or instructed to resign.
