A candidate for #onted trustee who has taken a very public "anti-woke" stance publicly shared a board email which included info on how to join virtual meetings for marginalized students.

This is more than playing politics or a lapse in judgment. (1/5)

Making this information publicly available puts students and staff directly in harm's way.

There is no apology that will excuse this egregious disregard for student wellbeing.

The candidate should immediately withdraw from the race for the damage done with this. (2/5)

No one running for a position of stewardship and leadership in #onted should build their platform on the basis of stripping students of their safety.

The email very clearly stated that it was not to be shared, but this trustee candidate brushed that aside. (3/5)

This is not the behaviour of a professional whose judgment can be trusted to safeguard students in #OCDSB. This willful dismissal of safety measures suggests a lack of understanding of what it means to protect the most vulnerable students in our schools.

How dare she? (4/5)

The damage is done, of course. Even removing the screenshots now wouldn't undo it.

Marginalized students and the staff who support them have been thrown to the wolves for the sake of "anti-woke" political posturing and social media clout. Again.

Withdraw, Chanel. (5/5)

Just in case anyone needs the tweet for posterity.

I'd like to see OCETFO and OSSTF D25 make public statements about the harm this candidate is causing students, staff, and families with her reckless "anti-woke" agenda.

This step has taken her way over the line of what's acceptable and what we can stay silent on as unions.
