Mr. Daiter writes in response to the BayToday article Grade 8 hate speech video prompts police investigation at local school
-----
As an ex-North Bayite, I cannot begin to tell you how disappointed and angry I was about the recent display of racism and antisemitism exhibited by the students of Algonquin School
My family lived in North Bay from1965-1996.
I have always regarded North Bay as a wonderful place to raise our children. It was a place where everyone was considered to simply be a person of some faith and religion.
Racism played no part in our daily life. What has happened ?????
The display of overt racism and discrimination makes my blood boil, and in its own way, has caused my wonderful memories of North Bay to be questioned.
Please take immediate action to ensure that we can live in an environment where we are all equal, and simply be recognized as citizens of North Bay
