A legal battle unfolds in Ontario as a parent challenges the Waterloo Region District School Boards mandatory land acknowledgements policy. Geoffrey Horsman, a biochemistry professor and parent, argues that the boards requirement for these acknowledgements at school council meetings, without debate, infringes on his freedom of expression. The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, representing Horsman, claims the board lacks legal authority to dictate such practices. This case echoes a similar incident in September, sparking a broader debate about freedom of expression and the role of school boards in setting policies.
