NOT OK. In the face of antisemitism, disinformation, and a campaign by the far-right to see my head roll, today I’m on trial with the Carleton District School Board, accused of a code of conduct violation for calling out white supremacy and saying trustees should all care about health & safety.

@nilikm these people are monsters. We stand with you.

@nilikm voted for you and stand with you. So relieved to have you in the school board.

If we write a letter of support, would it have any impact?

@nilikm

We need Canadians to understand white supremacy + political tactics used to persuade and manipulate the public.

I feel we have been so shielded. Twenty years ago, a friend of mine from South Africa asked me, "Why do Canadians take democracy for granted?" I didn't know what she meant. I couldn't fathom why it would ever be an issue. I didn't think it could happen us. But it's happening. We can't afford to be dismissive. Call out the #hate #antisemitism #racism, #misogyny #anti-LGBTQ.

@nilikm

What was the outcome?

They cut the feed when they cut your mic.

@Gigi @nilikm 7-0 voted against her. If it was 8-0 she would have been found guilty. It was an extremely close call and a very bad result for her
