   Teachers at the biggest school board in Canada, namely the Toronto   
   District School Board, got themselves into trouble a couple of years   
   back for their role in facilitating student involvement in   
   demonstrations. I heard about one school that sent students on a field   
   trip to "observe" a protest over the lack of clean drinking water in   
   Indian reserves. And when they got there, it turned out the protest was   
   dominated by the pro-Hamas crowd and the kids got handed protest signs.   
   That obviously took it was beyond "observing" and into participating.   
      
   A Jewish group wrote about this in one of their newsletters:   
      
   https://thecjn.ca/news/oct-7-toronto-student-protests/   
      
   Some of these demonstrations actually BEGAN on school property! These   
   "educators" are clearly a lot more interested in indoctrinating students   
   into their ideological mindset that getting information in some way that   
   is even remotely neutral. They are trying to create revolutionaries, not   
   educated citizens.   
      
   It's gotten so bad in Ontario that the Minister of Education has limited   
   the powers of some of the worst school boards and put them under direct   
   ministry control. The Minister is demanding steps be taken that limit   
   the power of trustees to implement measures that cater to specific   
   groups and makes the school boards more answerable to parents and students:
