An Alberta judge has ruled that a school board’s decision to disqualify a trustee over comments he made toward two school division employees was “disproportionate,” and that the board erred in law by requiring him to issue an apology of a specific nature.
Justice Eleanor J. Funk of the Court of King’s Bench issued a ruling on June 11, saying that the Peace River School Division in northwest Alberta did not have a factual basis to justify its decision to disqualify former trustee Moise Dion.
