An Ottawa trustee was bullied, called “racist” and mocked by her woke colleagues at a Tuesday night board meeting for putting forward a proposal to have the board work more closely with police to better respond to schools and staff experiencing a surge in vandalism and attacks.
Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) trustee Donna Blackburn told her colleagues that since the board eliminated the Student Resource Officer (SRO, or police in schools) program a year ago, school administrators, teachers and staff are left to call 9-1-1 or police directly if a concern or crisis arises – and wait sometimes for hours along with everyone else for police to respond.
She said the victims of violence in Ottawa schools are getting “less service” since they eliminated the program.
