30 Replies to “Showing Up To Riot”

  1. Not directly related to this incident, but to the trans movement in general…Over the past couple of days I’ve seen two females in their late teens or early twenties wearing clothing that I would not let my daughter wear. However, as a mid-forties male, I was very okay with what I saw.

    Fingers crossed its a sign females are pushing back against the trans movement.

  2. Wonderful to see. These women have taken more than enough crap from the woke Board of Education. Only one thing will get rid of them: dump them at the next municipal election.

    It works. Ottawa last year got rid of the most incompetent and corrupt mayor in Ottawa’s history along with most of the incumbent city council. The City Manager fled before the audit of the new Ottawa subway could hold him personally to account. Former Mayor ‘Himbo’ Watson fled the city on an extended foreign vacation. It can be done if people are infuriated enough to carry through. If Ottawa can do it, anyone can.

    1. Ottawa is still a city full of self absorbed, entitled and privileged bureaucrats who feed at the trough. Sure. They changed up the city council. They are still CBC loving Liberals.

  3. Ok, I’m sympathetic to the cause, and I know they all pay taxes of one sort or the other that pays these imbeciles’ salaries, but may I with all due respect suggest that if you are upset with the school’s curriculum, simply take your kids out of their schools.

    Form your own home-school networks, and teach the kids yourselves.

    Problem solved, and believe me, they will feel the impact if they find that their schools are suddenly being emptied.

    That will be a far more effective response than screaming at the trustees. Do you think they really care what you think? Do you really believe that your response matters to them??? To them, the kids don’t even belong to you. They belong to them!

    1. I agree with you wholeheartedly. Beyond the ideological dumpster fire that Public education is, the process and the product is crap. Everyone blames the other party and no one takes responsibility. Most parents in the system are capable enough or interested in the home schooling concept. That is a guess on my part. Good for the Durham parents going bonkers.

      1. Parents who are working to feed, clothe and house their children do not have time to home school as survival takes all their time.

        1. There are solutions. I suggested one of them. Educational Coops, where parents get together to pool teaching resources. That’s just one suggestion. Yes, a single parent without any support will be hard-pressed to home-school their kid(s), but when more parents realize that they are not alone, and actually do something constructive about it, the impact will be felt far more than screaming at a public school board meeting.
          You saw how trustees handle such events. They just leave, and then in a back room somewhere, probably comment on how hateful and transphobic these parents are, and that they shouldn’t be even granted the courtesy of a real response.
          That’s how trustees will deal with such controversies in the future. They’re gonna do what they’re gonna do, and screw the parents. In the end, nothing changes, unless parents come up with real solutions. The trustees will then think twice when they see that fewer students are attending their woke classes.

    2. Why on earth should you pay taxes to fund the public system at the egregious salaries that they make and then suffer the additional expense and inconvenience of setting up ‘home school networks’? If several thousand homeowners could be convinced to stop paying their property taxes and to form a common legal defense fund, that would accomplish more even than elections. After all, they only get elected because nobody else runs and only 20% bother to vote.

      1. Exactly. The school boards would start thinking, and re-evaluating their insane policies when their revenue drops along with their enrollment.

    3. Precisely.

      The culture wars and the school wars in this country are lost.

      No students mean no people to groom.

    4. Easier said than done.
      It would require one parent to be full time at home, which is commendable, and doable as a long term goal requiring huge commitment and lifestyle changes.
      We did it 30 years ago.
      Much more difficult now, especially in the city.
      Agree with stevo.

      1. And it looks like we’ll have to do it again. If you want real change, you have to be prepared to do what is necessary to protect your kids, even if it seems unfair.

  4. That parents are applying heat to school boards is a very good thing, even if it does produce some ugly momentes.

    People with extreme political agendas who wish to psh that agenda on students have had it too comfortable too long.

    1. Now follow up by finding good candidates to replace every one of the current school board members, and organize campaigns for them. Find people willing to go door to door and take time to introduce themselves to the electorate.

      It takes time and effort. Years of effort.

      1. Entirely right, both of you. And it works, as I noted above, in a far more difficult place than Durham Region.

      2. And can be railroaded by those that don’t have a day job except as community organizers.
        Those that live off a government program always have an organizational advantage.
        They are like the CBC.
        They never have to worry about making a living to pay their bills.

      3. …and that’s exactly what we are trying to do. we’ve had minimal success during the last municipal elections, but we did make a dent. It’s a start.

  5. Mock, and Disrupt these FILTHY PEDOCRATS. Sand in the machinery works! People see these vids and FINALLY realize we are the MAJORITY! ACT LIKE IT! FIGHT!

  6. Methinks the pedo’s have taken over the schools; at least they certainly have with the teachers unions.

    But they may have gone too far this time. There is nothing more dangerous, than a mother trying to protect her child.

    Go get em ladies.

  7. Shame on the trustees (if they are capable of shame), however, it is Doug Ford’s to own.
    Ford is premier.
    Ford has a minister of education.
    Ford controls the curriculum.
    School boards are a creature of the province. Ford owns this.

  8. Good for those speaking up. School boards and other assorted ****suckers need to start listening.

  9. If the trustees walked out of the meeting, does that mean they’ve resigned their positions? I think that’s what it ought to mean.

  10. The only way to reform the school boards is to make it so that teachers and other public servants are not allowed to vote for the Trustees. Both of my parents were teachers, and the teachers union would publish a slate of trustees to vote for, who would always get in. Because the percentage of parents who care enough to find out who’s running and vote for the right candidates is very low, and the number of teachers and their allies is high.

    After I turned 18, at the next municipal election I was handed the slate of who to vote for by my parents. I told them no.
