Controversial Speaker Not Welcome At Simcoe County Schools

The Simcoe County District School Board is investigating how Bear Creek Secondary School came to be listed as a speaking tour stop for a man charged with willful promotion of hatred in Mississauga. A poster lists the school as one of several stops this month for lecture series. The speaker is known for his strong views on the Muslim community.
