The TDSB, which has cafeterias which become mosques periodically, and women have to sit at the back and menstruating women have to sit at the very back of them, had this to say. Remember, the logo of the TDSB for years now, has been closer to the Islamic sign than a scholastic one. It is a crescent with a single apple seed, much like the Islamic crecent and star and its in Green, which is the colour of Islam. The TDSB is either white on a green field, or green on a transparent background.

The TDSB and the curious media avoidance of why they get a pass on ‘LGBTETC indoctrination

Posted on by

Fascinating stories are appearing about how one Toronto school board seems to have an opt-out for all the gay-trans explicit sex stuff every other school board is pretty much forced to expose children to, despite the fact that, you know, it’s illegal. Let’s have a look at a couple of them:

The College Fix: Academics: Allowing kids to opt out of drag storytime is a ‘dangerous setback’ for gay rights

A pair of academics affiliated with York University believe that allowing parents to opt out their children from drag storytime events is a “dangerous setback for 2SLGBTQ+ human rights education.”

Writing in the Toronto Star, Beyhan Farhadi, a fellow at York’s Institute for Research on Digital Literacies, and “community educator”/York M.Ed student Joy Henderson say the Toronto School Board’s decision to allow opt-outs from the “family-friendly” activity “sends a message that [queer] rights are debatable.”

Farhadi (pictured) and Henderson, both “queer parents,” point out the Toronto board previously had declared — in opposition to an allegedly “discriminatory” parental rights declaration — that “no student can be exempted from Human Rights education.”

The district didn’t even permit religious exemptions. They accuse the board of now “prioritiz[ing] the comfort of right-wing ideologues committed to maintaining gender norms and binaries.”

Scan the rest at source if you like..

The Globe and Mail: Human rights and 2SLGBTQ+ education should not be optional

The Toronto District School Board’s decision to allow parents to opt their children out of drag storytime — a common part of family-friendly programming during Pride Month and beyond — is a dangerous setback for 2SLGBTQ+ human rights education
We are queer parents with elementary and secondary-aged children in the TDSB. Like many, we were alarmed by a recent report detailing confusion over board policy and disappointed with their position that schools should “accommodate” parents who want to opt-out of drag storytime delivered by board-approved partners in-class and on-site.

Drag storytime offers students a representation of diversity in gender expression and identity, which are protected grounds of discrimination in the Ontario Human Rights Code.

If one reads through the G&M article you get the usual communist style verbiage we have all grown accustomed to, along with the logic of “liberating tolerance” and the usual sophistry that somehow, not letting people shove their sexual ,or other choices in your face all the time and forcing you to embrace these choices is somehow a violation of the rights of the people who made those choices. I offer the current reeducation of Canada’s Civil Service as a prime example of that. But there is something interesting neither article does mention and it bears at least a look.

That one school board in Toronto has been mentioned on this site many times. Let’s look at a few and see what they have in common:

Blazing Cat Fur: Mosqueteria Madness: CSIS Report – Teens Being Radicalized In High Schools

Here is one from 2011 on the exact same issue on the exact same subject but at that time the sexual deviancy agenda was far far less advanced in terms of the degree of sexual specificity that takes place now in schools

I Sure Hope The TDSB Is Teaching LGBTQ Awareness At The Valley Park Mosqueteria

More from 2011:

BCF: TDSB Mosqueteria Cheerleader NAMF Hosts “Jews & Gays & Kaffirs Are Filth” Radical Cleric

The word, “Mosqueteria” gets used a lot when dealing with the TDSB. Why is that exactly?

More on the mosqueteria- Canadian Islamist groups praise TDSB for taking a ‘principled’, sharia stand.

It should come as little surprise that Canadian Islamist groups are gushing with glee over the Toronto District School Board’s decision to play host to the illegal cafeteria-cum- mosque, it’s travelling Imam and the gender apartheid, Muslim menses ban set-up at Valley Park Middle School in Toronto. I especially love their references to the importance of human rights.

It appears the legal beagles over at the Canadian Muslim Lawyers Association must have opted to appear for Friday prayer instead of attending the classes which directly reference sections 15 and 28 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guaranteeing equality and gender equality respectively.

The TDSB was famous for a while because they allowed students to turn the cafeteria into a mosque, with boys at the front, girls in the middle and menstruating girls at the very back of the room. This of course is illegal in oh so many ways. But the TDSB was able to do it, and for all we know, still does. This story was dropped of course. Hey let’s have a look at the TDSB’s logo!

Interesting. It’s a slice of apple with a seed in a sort of green crescent shape. Creative! Usually when people want to represent an apple abstractly, they do so in red. What else is a crescent with a dot like that I wonder.

Odd that neither article mentions that the TDSB has a long history of orthodox Islamic teaching, which is, dare I say, not exactly friendly with sexual deviancy. Much like how the media has not mentioned that Muslims in numbers in Ottawa and elsewhere have been out protesting school boards against all this explicit pornographic trans and homosexual instruction. Please think about this. We need to understand that we live on a Mushroom farm. We are all in a dark room being covered in manure, all the time. We will never be allowed to be ahead of the narrative. When something is circulating that appears to be reality-positive on MSM, its just the Pied-Piper’s song, leading us or our children down the next path to massive government power at your expense and in every conceivable way. The issue here is not that the TDSB is getting a pass on the neo-Marxist indoctrination of your children into sexual deviancy in the name of “trans-rights”. It is that the media will not name why they get a pass. And why they will not detail the reasons is more important than the fact that they get that pass. The math is always what is worst for our civilization.

“With the left, the point is never the point. The Revolution is always the point”.

 

Toronto District School Board vetoes book about Islamic-state sex-slaves because it may cause Islamophobia

Posted on by

Yes. Really. The Toronto District School board, which long time readers of this site may remember from such stories as the Mosqueteria, where boys are in the front, girls behind, and menstruating girls right at the back, now have banned a book by a woman who was kidnapped and made into a sex slave by the Islamic State because factually stating the motives for her treatment, may cause rational fear for those motives. AKA “Islamophobia”.

Let’s have a look see at the logo for the TDSB, shall we?

Look familiar?

This site has monitored quite a history of submission to Islam by a public school board, Specifically the Toronto District School Board.

This latest breach of reality and freedom not just of speech, but freedom for an oppressed woman to speak of her own personal experience is a powerful milestone of the degradation of Canadian culture, law and society.

13 years ago, Christopher Hitchens saw this coming. Well lots of us did, but he put it rather well.

 

After intense debate, Muslim prayers now officially allowed in Ontario schools

Posted on by

Children and Youth Services minister, Michael Coteau, delivered an inherently contradictory statement to the Press, justifying the end of a secular school system in Ontario, stating:

“there’s just no tolerance for discrimination of any sort” along with Education Minister, Mitzie Hunter.

Apparently discrimination against those that believe in a fair and secular school board is allowed however.

The Toronto Star explains:

At issue in the Peel public board is some schools providing space for Muslim students to pray as a group, on Fridays. The practice has been going on for two decades — as it has in some Toronto public schools — but only recently been targeted by critics by way of protest and petitions demanding the 20 minutes of group prayer, called Jummah, be banned.

Critics believe it leads to segregation among students and inappropriate exposure to religion in a secular school system.

But Hunter and Coteau said allowing such prayers are in full compliance with the human rights code and mandatory board religious accommodation guidelines.

“We encourage parents and students to have an ongoing dialogue with their schools if an accommodation is required or whether there are concerns,” they wrote.

The #Quran was torn to shreds in a meeting at Peel District School Board (Mississauga, #Ontario) where parents demanded the school to ban the Muslim Friday prayer.

Muslim students get attention through “provoking prayer” – fuss at Wuppertal Gymnasium

Posted on by

An original translation by Nash Montana

From this German news site:

– There are problems in a Wuppertal Gymnasium due to “provoking prayer” by muslim students

– The school administration issued a ban and told teachers to turn in students who didn’t follow the ban

– The internal notification about the ban made it into the public eye and caused indignation

– The district government says: The ban is legal

Wuppertal. Turmoil about the Johannes Rau Gymnasium in Wuppertal: An internal notification by the school administration to the desk of the teachers made its way into the public eye and it has been shared on Facebook and discussed dozens of times.

The controversial content: “In the past weeks it has been increasingly observed how muslim students were very visibly, for others, praying on school grounds, signalled through the ritual washing in the toilets (bathrooms), the unrolling of prayer carpets, the taking of certain body postures. This is not allowed.”

The teachers were also asked to “report” cases to the school administration and to “determine” the names. That sounds like language the Police would use. Are muslim students being discriminated here because of their religious practice? There are huge accusations on the internet.

This is what the district government says:

The school didn’t want to make a statement. But the responsible district government Düsseldorf confirmed to us: The notification is real, it was written on February 16th. The issue is “provoking prayer” of muslim students within the school grounds. Fellow students and teachers felt encroached by this behavior. So much so that the school administration took action.

“The ban of prayer in provoking manner within the public school view should support peaceful togetherness and peace at school”, the district government writes in its statement.

The school only wanted to collect the names of the relevant students in order to talk to them about alternative solutions such as a prayer room.

Is the prayer ban legal?

Yes, said the district government. “The school principal does have the right within the frame of school domiciliary rights. Upholding Constitutional demand for the functioning of peaceful school activity and education, Article 5 GG, surpasses freedom of religion.” It is a similar case with mandatory swimming lessons at school. Here, too, female muslim students have to take part – even if that should go against their possible religious customs.

Wrong impression

The district government now tries to prevent a “wrong impression”. The gymnasium is known for its grand engagement for the integration of students of different religions and countries of origin.

But on the other hand, they are not entirely standing behind the school: The choice of words in the internal memo are seen as “unfortunate” by the district government. The school now has to report back to the government about their next steps in this matter.

“Provoking prayer” – is this a problem at other schools as well?

Around the district Düsseldorf there are no further cases known, says press spokesperson Dagmar Gross.

Dispatches Channel4 show on Islamic infiltration of UK schools

Posted on by

First, here are a couple of links that should bring you to the show.

1. The official one which only works if you are in the UK.

2. This one which kinda works everywhere but you may have to close some annoying adds and try a few times but it does play. (Better links will likely appear sooner or later)

Those of you who know how to use a VPN may want to set their location for somewhere in England and watch it on the original link.

This documentary starts out fairly well and does some reasonable exposing of some of the horror that takes place at schools now run by islamic authority. But it quickly turns on Jewish and Christian schools and tries to make the moral equivalence, if not directly by inference, that not teaching evolution as fact is equivalent to a Muslim school having speakers in who advocate murder of homosexuals and islamic supremacy etc. etc.

Yes, one of the most extreme sects of Jews seem to have underground schools where kids are taught in substandard buildings and probably do not get the standard British education among other things, and, if it is as presented, it should be stopped immediately. But the Christian schools in their example just taught creation in science class, (which is wrong no matter what you believe, as creation is a faith based idea and non-quantifiable and therefore not science even if true) and cannot be compared to what takes place in these muslim schools.

It is unfortunate that in the interest of ‘balance’ they had to pretty much destroy some solid points they made and expose some genuine problems which are a threat to British societies and even sovereignty by comparing it to annoying but relatively banal problems that no-doubt do exist in other faith based schools.

When they can find a Jewish or Christian school that advocates killing of the other, of treating music as a crime or one of the other myriad issues at Muslim schools which are anathema to British culture and history and law, then they can be included. Sadly though, by the end, it looked like a kind of dhimmitude on the part of the video maker as they tried to hard to say that it didn’t represent real islam, and that other religions do this too without any sort of percentage that might give a hint as to how widespread it might be across these faith groups.

In any case, its worth watching even if it makes you angry by the end.

Virginia Teacher Charged With Assault: Girl’s Hand Cut in Forced ‘Islamic Hand Sign’ Drill (Updated)

Posted on by

An elementary school teacher in Chesapeake, Va. has been charged with simple assault after a parent claimed her daughter’s hand was cut open as a result of the teacher yanking her arm aggressively while trying to teach students an “Islamic hand sign.”

Officer Leo Kosinski, a spokesman for the Chesapeake Police Department, told TheBlaze that Tara Harris was criminally charged with a misdemeanor on Oct. 11 and released on a summons. The case is currently under investigation.

“It’s still a criminal charge. It happened at the school and it involved a student,” Kosinski said. The police department could not release any additional information.

Stephanie Bennett, the mother of the 10-year-old girl who was allegedly assaulted at Butts Road Intermediate School, told TheBlaze in an emotional phone interview that Harris has a disturbing trend of “indoctrinating” students with Islamic teachings. She also said the teacher openly campaigns for President Barack Obama in the classroom.

The mother said her daughter told her that Harris “prays to Allah in Arabic” around five times a day in front of students and teaches them about Islam and how it is superior to other religions. Bennett claims other parents have confirmed her suspicions after talking with their kids.

Muslims want permanent prayer rooms high schools

OTTAWA — While Ottawa high schools profess to offer prayer rooms for Muslim students, an Islamic leader says they don’t have a permanent space and are often relegated to small classrooms, if they can get space at all.

Washim Ahmed is the Islamic director of Carleton University’s Muslim Students’ Association and he leads a prayer service at more than half a dozen public high schools in Ottawa on Fridays.
But he said none of the schools have permanent prayer rooms, and they’re often shuffled between classrooms or the gym, depending on what’s available.

Sometimes, he said there simply isn’t a room they can use.

Ottawa Mosqueterias, attempts to expose them, and the hypocrites who claim it is a religious freedom

Posted on by

First, it helps to understand the story that broke, by Blazing Cat Fur of course, in the past few days about the Ottawa Schools who, like the now famous Toronto public school, breaks Canadian law on not having religious services on school property, and especially not when school is in session and doubly so when they are exclusive to one group and double-double when it discriminates against girls and then again menstruating girls. Simply un-canadian values. At leas as those values were before the great hijra.

Now it might be wise to look at one of the principal (pun actually intended this time) people who is running interference at any attempt to stop Islamic prayer services in Ottawa public schools, one of whom is Aisha Sherazi

She was in fact the principal of a Muslim school that got caught up in quite a bit of controversy in 2005.

I would like to take this opportunity to bang a drum of my own before the pastes of the various newspaper articles (Thanks Shab!) below.

The notion of religious freedom was never meant to mean that anyone can do anything they want so long as they called it a religion. It very simply meant that governments could not persecute you as an individual because you chose to hold different beliefs on matters supernatural than your neighbor or what the state might hold. Technically it was really meant to mean, ‘you can be both kinds of religion if you want. Catholic OR Protestant”.

It was most certainly never meant to allow people to break national, or municipal laws because you claim it is your religion to do so. For those people, there is always a flight  to somewhere that allows whatever it is you feel you must do. And hell, if you aren’t willing to make that small sacrifice for your religion, then do you really believe that stuff you say? Or if you are not willing to adapt to Canadian values and laws, then are you really a contributing citizen?

Now on the the articles:

While the links to the Ottawa Citizen stories are dead now, I happen to have the text of the entire article here… (Again, thanks Shab!)

Province to investigate school after student’s anti-Semitic report
Ministry responds to fear of Islamic schools becoming ‘incubators of hate’

Juliet O’Neill

The Ottawa Citizen

Friday, March 25, 2005

Principal Aisha Sherazi of Abraar Islamic School at 1085 Grenon Ave. has had to deal with a lot of fallout over the contentious story written by a child attending the school.

Ontario Education Minister Gerard Kennedy launched an investigation yesterday into the “deeply disturbing” situation at the Abraar Islamic School after two teachers were suspended for their involvement in a young student’s writing project, which glorified martyrdom and violence against Jews.
Mr. Kennedy said he hoped an Education Department supervisor’s investigation “into what is going on” at the private school will find this is an isolated incident. He also said it could lead to a reference to the Ottawa police for a hate crimes investigation. He said the government is also looking into its powers to deregister a private school. If the teachers are certified by the Ontario College of Teachers, they may lose their certification. Continue Reading →
