The Toronto School Board may be going back 50 years, but people of Toronto don't want to. This is an extreme case of political correctness.
More than four-fifths of residents in the Greater Toronto Area are opposed to the Toronto District School Board's plan for an alternative Africentric school, according to a new Angus Reid poll.
Sixty-four per cent of the 451 GTA respondents stated they were strongly opposed to black-based schools, while 18 per cent said they were moderately opposed. Two per cent strongly supported the move, while 12 per cent expressed moderate support.
Conducted over three days earlier this week, the poll surveyed 1,097 people from across the province; similar results were found in all areas of Ontario.
Last week, the Toronto District School Board narrowly approved creating an Africentric alternative school as a way to tackle high dropout rates among black youth.
Why is it only the black community that feels the "white" school system has let it down? Therefore, it needs it own school to motivate the students to learn. Chinese, Hindu or whatever, students do just as well or in some cases better than white students. They obviously don't need a sino-centric or hindu-centric school to motivate them to learn.
