"The incident was first flagged by a student who had access to a shared social media account for a program at James Cardinal McGuigan Catholic High School. In it, a teacher allegedly had shared an anti-Black racist image to the account of another teacher at the school, who replied LMAO where are the chicken wings, [F-word][N-word] are all the same."
"They said the board acted immediately after the incident was made known to them. Support is in place for any students and staff affected by the events. Teachers hold positions of trust and influence, and any conduct that interferes with the Board's duty to maintain a safe and respectful school environment will not be tolerated, they said. Charline Grant, executive director for Parents of Black Children, said the teachers should have their licences revoked after sharing racist anti-Black messages on a shared social media account."

Charline Grant of Parents of Black Children called for licence revocations and alleged earlier school leaders minimized the incident.
