Toronto District School Board fire after field trip to downtown protests


#toronto #downtown #school


Ontario’s largest school board is under fire after students at several schools were taken on a field trip where they appear to have ended up taking part in a protest held in downtown Toronto.
Students at a number of Toronto District School Board schools were given permission to head to a day of action for the people of Grassy Narrows First Nation on Wednesday, whose community river was impacted by years of mercury poisoning.
The board said a trip to view a protest by Grassy Narrows that had promised to attract thousands outside Queen’s Park was “an educational experience for students to hear from Indigenous voices about the ongoing challenges faced by the people of Grassy Narrows.”
Some parents and other groups, however, complained the trip veered away from education and into protest and activism.

“I’ve been to many protests in my life and if this was not a protest, I will eat my hat,” the mother of a child at an east Toronto school told Corus Entertainment’s AM 640 Radio.
