Last July, a video about the Israeli occupation of Palestine, which was created by a high school student for his civics class a few years ago, was removed via pressure from the Ontario education minister due to accusations of it being antisemitic and biased. The York Region District School Board removed the video from the online class’s curriculum, bowing to false and harmful assumptions that Palestinian perspectives are considered controversial in classrooms. The video was recently shown again in an Ottawa classroom for discussion in a social studies class on global issues, which was met with the same response and the Ontario government once again removed the video.
