Send A Letter To Stop The Ontario Ministry Of Education From Erasing Palestinian History
Send a letter to Ontario Education Minister Paul Calandra demanding the immediate review and removal of inaccurate and biased educational resources on Edwin, the Ministry of Education’s e-learning resource platform.
These resources include:
- Misleading coverage of Israeli history and settlements
- Omission of Palestinian history and perspectives.
- A dangerous precedent of inaccuracy and bias educational resources.
For example, a World Religions (HRT3M) resource describes Jerusalem as “the city of Jerusalem in Israel” without acknowledging its complicated and contested legal status. Canada, for example, has not moved its Embassy to Jerusalem for precisely this kind of reason. Children should not be given a one-sided perspective on this issue that is misleading or problematic.
Students deserve accurate historical information, not biased materials.
Call on Minister Calandra to immediately review the identified Edwin resources in accordance with the Ontario Education Act
Accurate Palestinian history and perspectives must be represented in Ontario's educational resources.
