If you needed any more proof that liberalism is a mental disorder disguised as a hero-complex; here you go!
Megan Breeze is a Grade 12 student at Sherwood Secondary. At the beginning of the school year, she was accepted into a co-op program at Juravinski Hospital.
She spent three weeks in a classroom learning about hospital cleaning, basic care and COVID protocols before working in customer service and among patients in general medicine.
To promote the program Megan’s teacher took photos of the students working and took photos of the students at the hospital. One of the photos Megan’s hand was on her leg with her index finger pressed against her thumb and her other fingers pointed toward the floor.
The teacher posted the photo on a public Instagram account. She didn’t note any concern. Megan says she made the same gesture in a few other photos too.
A few days later her parents got a call from the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board saying she was not to go to the hospital, but should come in to the school for a meeting instead.
Megan and her father went to the meeting; where they were told she was being removed from her placement and banned from the hospital because someone had complained about her hand sign and that she was also in jeopardy of being suspended. “They said it was a racist sign,” says Megan. “I didn’t know.”She says she tried not to cry during the meeting.“I was accused of being a racist.”
The buffoons at the hospital say the initial complaint came to Hamilton Health Sciences.
HHS was “made aware of online posts from a learner that could have been interpreted to be contrary to the HHS values-based code of conduct,”
Wendy Stewart said in an emailed response to The Spectator:
“We informed the school board when we were made aware of the posts in early October. As the pictures in the posts were taken at HHS sites, we acted decisively to emphasize that we expect all persons who come to our sites, regardless of whether they are an employee, patient, visitor or vendor to behave in a manner that ensures everyone at HHS feels respected, safe and welcome.”
An email from school board spokesperson Shawn McKillop says:
“A community member noticed an unacceptable symbol in a social media post and reported it to HWDSB and program partner, Hamilton Health Sciences. The symbol, which can be interpreted as promoting hate, does not align with HWDSB’s commitment to equity and inclusion. Symbols of hate that promote racism or white supremacy ideology are not tolerated in HWDSB or anywhere in our community. The image was immediately taken down.
