It is only a first step, but it augurs positively. Last night, trustees at the TCDSB sent a clear message to other woke zealots: “enough with your nonsense”. Those are the words of trustee Di Giorgio.
They had enough of the hi-jacking the educational agenda and preventing other from doing what is best for the children under their care and for their mothers and fathers who have put their trust in Catholic education.
Daniel Di Giorgio is credited with having brought together the moderates on the Board.
Their objective was to clear out all of the wokeists (De Domenico, Di Pasquale, Li Preti and Rizzo) and “their s***t”, he said.
When it came to vote for a trustee on the LGBTQ2 Advisory Committee, De Domenico received zero votes. “It is ironic that someone who allegedly is advocating on behalf of this group received 0 votes to sit on the subject committee”, commented Di Giorgio.
Several Catholic electors have already written to offer congratulations and support to the trustees in their new roles as Chairs and/or Vice-Chairs:
- Student Achievement and Well Being, Catholic Education and Human Resources Committee – Chair: Trustee Nancy Crawford; Vice-Chair: Trustee Mike Del Grande
- Corporate Services, Strategic Planning and Property Committee – Chair: Teresa Lubinski; Vice- Chair: Trustee Daniel Di Giorgio
- Governance and Policy Committee – Chair: Trustee Garry Tanuan; Vice-Chair: Trustee Nancy Crawford
- Supervised Alternative Learning – Trustee Teresa Lubinski Catholic Parent Involvement Committee – Trustee Garry Tanuan
Trustee Angela Kennedy is the new Chair and trustee Frank D’Amico is the Vice Chair.
Wokeists, who are not even Catholic electors, have taken to social media to decry the outcomes. They can send their children to the other school board.
A similar vote will take place in the first week of December in Halton. Its problems are equally serious in that one of their nine trustees, Nancy Guzzo, a wokeist, is facing twelve criminal counts of fraud. There is a resolution meeting on November 29 in advance of the court date, December 21.
She refuses to recuse herself from any Board deliberations in the interim. This presents a challenge on several fronts, especially for LiUNA, her former employer, the generator of those charges.
It is conceivable that LiUNA and the prosecution could cause the withdrawal of all charges and expose themselves to frivolous use of the courts to individuals gain.
