Ontario's
government has launched an online portal for parents to report
teachers who they believe aren't following the current curriculum.
Teachers who use the previous Liberal government's sex education
curriculum from 2015 will be investigated by the Ontario College of
Teachers, Premier Doug Ford's office said Wednesday.
"We
will not tolerate anybody using our children as pawns for
grandstanding and political games," the premier said in a press
release. …..Seems to me that is exactly what Mr Fraud is doing with
his ideological and dictatorial undocumented changes to the Ontario
School curriculum.
Whilst
the curriculum brought in by the previous (Liberal) government was
not universally applauded in that a few narrow minded right wing
parents objected to the kids being taught about the realities of
modern sex education, the process to bring in said new curriculum was
long and included much 'consultation' before being implemented. It
was NOT changed by fiat over a few days before the teachers even had
a chance to view the changes proposed nor were the teachers
threatened with 'investigation' by the college of teachers for not
strictly adhering to said narrow conservative view of the modern
world.
That
this follows the recent unprecedented and hurried change to the
upcoming Toronto council election also brought in with no
'consultation' says much about the way this new Fraud Regime intends
to proceed in the next 4 years. It is in my view an affront to
democratic process, just because it CAN be done without input from
those effected does not mean it should be done in that manner!
In
some situations a short circuit can cause part of the unit involved
to overheat and be destroyed resulting in the failure of the entire
system with far reaching effects. Fraud has not blown it up yet but
the heat sure seems to be building, keep your heavy gloves handy
folks.......
Short
Circuit - verb

someone or something short-circuits a process or system, they avoid
long or difficult parts of it and use a quicker, more direct method
to achieve their aim.

I think to this gang and their acolytes. Rural, democracy is an impediment. They seem to feel that having been elected, they can now ignore custom, practice and consultation (except with right-wing fanatics like the evangelicals) so they can do what they KNOW is THE TRUTH.
Mr. Ford doesn't have a democratic bone in his body, Rural. But he knows what he wants -- and he intends to get it.
I agree guys, the word democracy means nothing to this lot!
