After the Toronto District School Board’s decision to receive the highly flawed Combating Hate and Racism – Student Learning Strategy Update Report, 2024 (CHR) for the upcoming school year, it’s clear we must call on the provincial government to remove politics from the classroom.  

At a time when our community is experiencing a significant rise in antisemitic incidents, anti-Jewish racism, and anti-Israel hostility in Toronto schools, CHR adopts the narrative of “anti-Palestinian racism,” which seeks to erase core aspects of Jewish identity and history and redefine what constitutes antisemitism. 

You don’t fight discrimination of one community by discriminating against another. 

The provincial government must intervene. 

Sign our Action Alert and speak out – take politics out of the classroom!
