It's deeply troubling that Nancy Elgie still holds her position. What year is this?

Her comments whether "accidental " or not is completely unacceptable. Her termination should have been immediate.

Ms. Elgie made a racist comment, and given her age, she lacks the mental capacity to hold any position of authority. She should resign immediately.

She needs to go and if she can't be fired then maybe the whole system of how trustees are appointed needs reconsideration. Her continued presence at the YDSB is a blemish on the already tarnished reputation of the school board. Shame.

This is completely unacceptable behavior and should not be tolerated in any way by the YYDSB or the public. Nancy Elgie must resign now!

With this petition I hope to see a real change within our education system that doesn't wait upon signatures or petitions to remove racialist actions/individuals but is proactive and responsible to respond appropriately ahead of any petition. We owe our children better.

There should be zero tolerance for this kind of despicable behavior.

Completely inexcusable ... don't want someone like this making decisions for our children.

Disgusting that I have to sign a petition for what should have already been done. Men who host radio shows, sports teams etc have lost their jobs for said behaviour. What makes her so special? Bye Felicia ... Seriously.

There is no room for hate in our schools. If she had this supposed head injury - she still needs to be ousted to avoid any further "mistaken outbursts"
