TDSB- post your real stories dealing with them.

That's fine.
That's the impression I get is there are people in positions that are clueless and just make stuff up on the fly.

You are so correct to clueless. Add into the equation they keep having to prove that they are worth something and as you say, make up stuff on the fly
 
My son is eleven and a first degree black belt not some just give the kid kind a 6 year journey. He is in grade 6 some kid in grade 8 taller then myself at 5 10 picks him up and threatens him. Not wanting to get in trouble he warns the kid and then the reports what happened to the principal. The principal does nothing next day it happens again, I had told him to defend himself after warning him again about black belt, and this time my kid takes him to the ground and almost breaks his shoulder before kid finally gives in. My son gets suspended, bully gets nothing. My son and I go to movies and have fun and I tell him he did the right thing and to not let bullies push him around. Now no kid bothers him after seeing what he can and could do. That's a perfect example of how the TBSD had their ***** in the ground.

Odd, in the TCDSB policy was to suspend all students involved in fights regardless if it was legitimate self defense or not.

The TDSB covers up what happens in schools. They do not want to look bad. In my days if we where caught fighting. we duked it up in the gym boxing ring. Then shook hands.

Good for you "silverbullet132 and to your Son"
 
Funny how trades always get the bums rush in this country. The engine of the Eurozone (Germany mostly) has huge respect for trades and it shows. Now that Ontario is ramping up with the new Ontario College of Trades maybe things will change. Maybe.


The College of Trades is just another revunue resource tool, along with the rest of bill 119, that, if left unchecked, will run many small business trades into closure and bankruptcy in Ontario. Orgs like the WSIB have been abusing the system for so long, they now need to find funding to the tune of 16-30 billion dollars soon, to try to cover up the mistakes they have made, as well as to maintain their own personal employment. It is a new tax levied onto small businesses, tot he tune of 7.5% up to 21%. Without digging up new resources, the employees of these orgs themselves will not have paycheques to cash, so they are now chasing revenue in the guise of grossly inflated insurance, from a group of people who have never cost them a penny (self employed sole proprietors with no employees- eg: trades that work alone).

I spoke at a round table with the business and red tape critic last Weds about the problems we are facing from Bill 119.....We are hoping that things change soon and fast.

Imagine what would happen if the gov't suddenly mandated that every driving in the province now had to buy their coverage from one company.
The policy would cost everyone 4-10X more than they currently pay for coverage.
Drivers could only drive Mon-Fri, 9-5......nights and weekends there was no coverage.
If you wanted 24/7 coverage, you could buy a supplementary policy from another insurer.
If ever a claim was made, and the claimant had a supplementary policy as well, they supplementary company had to pay, and the primary would pay nothing, regardless of the premiums the claimant had paid to the primary.


.....this is just a small portion of the problems crated by this Bill119.

I had something similar happen in Peel when I was 12 (grade 8). Some girls attacked me, at first I held her back then just hit her, the "fight" ended by her running into my knee, falling to the ground winded. I walked away and went back to class, ended up suspended for a week and forced to fill out a whole bunch of questionaires. The one that bugged me off was "martial artists and professional fighters rarely get into fights outside of the ring, why do you think so?" it was my first and last fight ever, and I had by that point been in Karate for 9 years. Needless to say most people are smarter then to try and fight me lol

Yup you got it Amazon. I told my boy he did it right and to hold his head high and don't let anyone push you around. I got him in to karate to prepare for high school and to be able to defend himself from evil in the school and outside of it.

Disheartening to say the least. I won't bother with the huge rant, it'll suffice to say we live in a sick society. Eagerly awaiting death.

YRDSB, this happened in 2008:

Knife pulled on someone already in a 4 on 1 fight at school, the person getting threatened ended up disarming the one person and kicking the living **** out of 2/4 until he was subdued. Suspended 2 weeks, the 4 each got 3 days in-school cause they were "good students" marks-wise. Police then threatened the person who was attacked with court action if he pursued charges against the other 4.
 
I was attacked twice "a few years back".. First time it was him hitting me with 4 buddies making sure I don't fight back situation, so I reported it to the school and the police. Second time, the guy got cocky enough to do it when the number of my buddies was about the same as his buddies, so I fought back and he didn't come out looking too good. They suspended us both. On a good note I lost my virginity over that "long weekend" and it made other potential bullies think twice :cool:
