This is just incredible. A female teacher voiced her concerns about school materials that painted a medically unrealistic picture of transition. So this dude accused her of transphobia and threw her out of the meeting. Now he's bragging about doing it.
Beyond satire: They couldn't even figure out how to pin a transphobia rap on the woman, so now they're claiming that she "opened the door to transphobic comments"
This is a school board trustee, apologizing to anyone "harmed" by ... a teacher asking a question about a book
As of a few hours ago, apparently, we weren't allowed to see the video. @ScottPiatkowski realizes the whole thing isn't quite as good a look as he first imagined, and is saying that watching him bully a woman might cause "harm" ....
Update: the video was apparently posted and was then taken down. Scott seems to be in damage ctrl mode
This is what the YouTube thumbnail was this morning, before the video was abruptly taken down
Infantile.
Same dude

Colleagues actually cheering him on
Here's a town councilor repeating the lie that this was about enforcing the ontario human rights code
Local MPP of course
By the way, one of the school board trustees cheering on @ScottPiatkowski the loudest is running for the @OntarioNDP ... not a surprise, since school board is junior varsity prep for an mpp run in many cases. This cult is what the whole province soon gets
"So very real"
All the cultists coming out to cheer Scott on
Grade 1 teacher cheering a dude who smacked down a female colleague who'd asked about a book that presents transition as a solution to life's problems
This is one of the four trustees who voted to let the teacher speak. She is now begging for forgiveness for having done so.
wow it gets better. our dude @ScottPiatkowski, the social-justice champ who throws women out of @wrdsb meetings if they give him lip, is the only white guy in the group. (Conveniently, he's also the chairperson!) The trustee publicly opposing him is—yup—the only non-white trustee
@ScottPiatkowski @wrdsb But hey, you can watch Scott in action for yourselves ....
