FREEDOM of Ontario’s Open Letter to the Toronto District School Board Trustees Summary / TLDR TDSB's policy-making around the Secondary Program Review and the two latest Policies has significant issues in historical, educational and legal aspects. The particular TDSB officers' individual disqualifications are deeply concerning and it appears that they have been obsessed with the ideology of mega MEGA. We have seen clear and unequivocal triple intent toward racially rigged education, and proclaim that any child(ren) of any race(s) must be entirely free from historical debt(s) owed by any race(s). TDSB Trustees shall decline the two Policies for the public interest.

Why Are There No Longer "Local Schools" in Ontario? Present Centralized Funding Model in Ontario Public Education, and Invalidity of School Zoning in the Education Act Summary / TLDR Ontario has had a centralized funding model for public education in elementary and secondary schools since 1997, and Ontario school boards no longer have the power to levy local education taxes. Each Ontario elementary or secondary student is allocated a portion of funding for their education, regardless of where they attend a school or program. Each taxpayer (adult resident) in Ontario contributes to any public elementary or secondary school or program in Ontario in a relatively even or similar manner, as the residential education tax rate is universally the same anywhere across Ontario. The business education tax rates had been capped at the same level for 94% of all Ontario businesses as of 2021. Therefore, there are no

Fight for Minorities, or Just Racial Rigging? Summary / TLDR TDSB claims to fight for minorities. TDSB fully discards the needs and choices of the minorities when capping the number of applications or school choices. The shown opposition and contradiction corroborates TDSB's true intention to make triple racial rigging for racial quota or racial balancing in the name of mega MEGA.

Origin of School Zoning and Historical Nexus of Open Enrollment in Ontario Public Education Summary / TLDR Origin of school zoning in Ontario public education was closely related to local property education taxes. Open enrollment has been generally and generously permitted and supported in Ontario public education with strong historical nexus, regardless of school zoning. An Ontario (prospective) secondary student' right to provincially open enrollment is protected in the Education Act .

How Does the School Board Become Super Bob and Want to "Rob"? TDSB's Illegal Use of Personal Privacy Information and Trespass into Individual Autonomy Spheres Summary / TLDR TDSB infers students' family incomes by illegal use of personal privacy information. TDSB officers make an ungrounded conjecture about students' extracurricular activities, trespassing into their individual autonomy spheres. TDSB officers have been making policies based on the mixture of the illegal use and the ungrounded conjecture, in the name of mega MEGA. Any such policies, in particular any to "rob" students' equal opportunities to competitive programming, must be resolutely declined, resisted, and overturned if approved. FREEDOM of Ontario will provide a template of the Personal Privacy Information Notice at a later time. Disclaimer This post is to provide the information, and the cita

Brief History of the "Coloured People" Provision in the Ontario School Act , Its Role in Racial Segregations, and Its Resurrection Summary / TLDR The "Coloured People" provision remained in the Upper Canada / Ontario School Act from 1850 through 1964, for more than 110 years! It was manipulatable, and used as the legal ground for racially segregated schools of coloured people, and to unreasonably retain educational resources for some race(s). It is being resurrected by the TDSB Secondary Program Review and its policies in the name of mega MEGA, which are to restrict the student flow.

FREEDOM of Ontario's Heads-up Message to Ontario Citizens and Residents Summary / TLDR The PDSB and the TDSB's recent policy-makings have shown significant procedural issues, and have shown the policy makers' omission of historical context, ignorance of legal basics, lack of global perspective and obsession with ideology of mega MEGA. They have also exposed alarming signals of resurrected segregations, triple racial rigging, and potential issues beyond education. We have built FREEDOMofOntario.org , published the draft FREEDOM Declaration of Ontario , and will be publishing accompanying posts and open/public letters. We are sincerely asking everyone to spread the website and the information, for the public awareness, and to execute our voting powers.
