The Peel District School Board (PDSB) is investigating after a principal made a social media comment contradicting a news article about the rise of antisemitism with a claim that there is instead a rise in anti-Zionism due to Israel committing “genocide” in Palestine
In a Nov. 12 post on X, formerly Twitter, PDSB principal Rich Ward responded to a news article indicating the headline should be changed from “‘Unprecedented’: Antisemitism has skyrocketed in the wake of the Israel-Hamas war” to “Anti-Zionism has skyrocketed in the wake of the Israel-led genocide in Palestine.”
