The Halton public school board says it can’t implement a teacher dress code — in part because it would open it to “considerable liability” — despite numerous complaints about an educator at Oakville Trafalgar High School who wears oversized prosthetic breasts with protruding fake nipples.

In a report presented to trustees on Wednesday, the Halton District School Board’s director of education and its superintendent of human resources said that such a move could violate the human rights code and that, in any event, new rules can’t be considered at the moment because of current collective bargaining with teacher unions.

“In consideration of this, and the board’s obligations under the Ontario Human Rights Code, the has advised that even if a dress code is implemented for non-discriminatory reasons and in good faith, it would likely be found to be discriminatory,” Taha added. In September, trustees passed a motion asking director of education Curtis Ennis about the feasibility of introducing a dress code for teachers. One already exists for students.

While employers are allowed to establish them, a human rights’ tribunal “has likewise acknowledged that an employer cannot establish standards which, in their application or administration, result in differential treatment on the basis of a protected ground.”

But it can for students?!

Well that leaves it wide open doesn't it--what about the dress code imposed on its students?

Who wants to march? This is insane. I can't sit and watch this anymore

Promote sexual fetish in front of children. Disgusting

They can't impose a dress code for teachers, but they can impose a dress code for students. Good to know students are not protected under the human rights code, but perverted teachers who get off on their student's rights are well protected. Fire the education director

Let's see about that, have men go in wearing thongs and micro mini skirts.

This is the ultimate trolling

So it wouldn’t be an issue if female school employees went to work sans bras?

The emperor is naked.

What about laws to protect children? What about the children?

It can’t impose a dress code to combat degeneracy in mentally I’ll adults but let’s talk about imposing useless and baseless masking on kids in school.

Why

Article says: . . . despite numerous complaints about an educator at Oakville Trafalgar High School who wears oversized prosthetic breasts with protruding fake nipples So are you telling us that 'numerous complaints' exist or are you confirming that such an 'educator' exists?

If Tim Horton's and Canada Post employees wear uniforms, why can't school teachers? Furthermore, dress codes for students were/are commonplace. What a dumb thing to say.

HaltonDSB cowards

Broken....Fix it....

How about they get the teacher help for body dysmorphia? Don't they get help for other illneses?

What kind of society 'can't' stop teachers from wearing fetish accessories at work in a classroom full of children/Teens? Canada Ontario Shameless

Parents need to get rid of all woke on school boards

When are the sane normal people going to take a stand? Why is this clown more important than the kids he’s supposed to be teaching?

Scumbags

Coward

Why does everyone hate teachers and nurses Honestly two professions that r highly educated, care for loved ones, teach your kids. What is the fucking problem people? Time to focus on the bloody grifting your province is doing. Wake the hell up!!

Oh jesus here we go.

Why do we even need dress codes? Can't ppl stop being gross? It's not the amount of skin that should ever be at issue, but the yuck factor.

Can’t or won’t? My guess is won’t because they are “woke”.

This school district can impose a dress code on students but not on staff? Where are the SJW activists? This school district should be defunded for their double standards.

Next Wondering the sickness..what costume is going to be...

So nudity, then?

Why not? They do it in Quebec...

Any work place can impose a dress code lol

School board deems dress code a 'liability' after Oakville teacher wears prosthetic breastsAn Ontario school board says it would likely be a 'liability' to impose a dress code after images circulated online of a teacher wearing large prosthetic breasts in a classroom. fordnation you gonna get on this. Hdsb needs a house cleaning and dress codes are not human rights violations. Need sane judges and laws. Otherwise we live in a clown world. “Finally, and most importantly, we note that if the employer desires to foster a culture of professionalism, respect, equity and inclusion, a truly reasonable and non-discriminatory dress code or grooming standards would most likely fail to yield the intended results.” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 I would have to say this pervert is more of a liability. How does this “man” wake up in the morning, put on this outfit and think it’s appropriate to teach children? Just plain disgusting.
