I'm a teacher. I have insight into how this is all working. Maybe one question Ontarians should be asking is, "Why are these changes not better studied?"

I saw one parent at the Peel District School Board evening meeting as the board if they actually KNEW if Muslim prayers were affecting academic achievement or a sense of belonging for non-Muslim kids. The board had no answer. Google Islamic Prayer in Peel Schools and see for yourself. The parents opposed to Muslim prayer are many and come in a variety of backgrounds. Hindus in particular object to these outrageous demands. 

The teachers' unions are completely quiet in this issue. Why? They just stick out their hands for more money about pay. People like Barbara Hall at the Human Rights Commission get paid for paying out. It's not their money or their kids anyway. Accommodation for religion is not accommodation when it costs others time and money. It is state-supported obligation.
