A video posted on social media shows Waterloo Catholic District School Board (WCDSB) trustees walking out of a board meeting when asked questions about controversial tweets made on social media by a trustee.

At an April 24 evening meeting, a journalist from Rebel News, complete with a camera crew, stood and began reading social media posts written by trustee Wendy Ashby, who has since deleted her Twitter account and the posts in question.
