Ontario Education Minister Jill Dunlop expressed deep disappointment over a recent incident involving the Toronto District School Board (TDSB), where students were allegedly made to protest. The incident has sparked calls for external supervision of the TDSB, with critics arguing that the board and its top administrators should be relieved of their duties. Premier Doug Ford has been urged to place the TDSB under supervision to address the situation, which affected 15 different schools. MP Kevin Vuong and other critics have condemned the actions as an attempt at indoctrination, not education. Neethan Shan's non-apology for the harm that some students may have experienced has also been criticized. Dunlop emphasized that compromising the security and safety of students is unacceptable.
