Toronto Teacher Suspended After Forcing Students to Watch Charlie Kirk Murder Video

News summary

A public school teacher at Corvette Junior Public School in Toronto, Canada, has been suspended after allegedly forcing students aged 10 to 11 to repeatedly watch a graphic video of Charlie Kirk's assassination while delivering a speech claiming Kirk deserved to be killed. The incident, which involved the teacher showing violent footage and discussing anti-fascism and transgender issues, left several students traumatized, prompting complaints from parents and an investigation by the Toronto District School Board. The school's principal, Jennifer Koptie, described the behavior as "extremely troubling and completely disturbing" and assured parents that social work support was provided to affected students. Charlie Kirk, CEO of Turning Point USA and an ally of President Donald Trump, was fatally shot at a Utah college event, with the suspect taken into custody shortly after. The Toronto school emphasized that the teacher responsible was not the regular instructor and has been relieved of all teaching duties pending the investigation. Meanwhile, educational authorities in Florida have announced investigations into any teachers celebrating Kirk's murder, highlighting the broader national sensitivity surrounding the case.
