Trustee Ashby must resign!

We have some very alarming news regarding a Catholic school board trustee from Waterloo. 

Trustee, Wendy Ashby of Waterloo Catholic Regional School Board, needs to be held accountable for her actions. A series of inflammatory tweets she made, caught the eye of several concerned community members after she attacked white Christian males, stating "The most dangerous creature on the planet is the White Christian Male. They're a threat to anyone that is not them." Another tweet from her, says "Hush money. Buying silence about being underpaid. White women make obedient soldiers for the christofascist patriarchy."

To break it down, this is a Catholic school board trustee, who has a duty to represent Christian values, overtly attacking Christian values, and the people she is supposed to represent. 

Ashby's tweets all had hashtags such as "transgenderism", "truth", "white entitlement", "racism", "trans rights are human rights", etc. She appears to consider herself a social justice warrior, fighting for justice and acceptance for all! But where is the representation for the white Christian males she so blatantly discriminates against? If these comments had been made towards anyone of colour, members of the LGBTQ+ community, or Indigenous communities, the school board would have taken immediate action and removed her from position as trustee, especially as a Catholic school board.

Wendy Ashby has shown prejudice based on race and religion, which shows she is unfit to represent her white Christian constituents as a trustee, and she should resign. 

Please sign our petition, asking for Ashby's resignation.

    This individual has, at one fell swoop, divulged that they have precisely no business, whatsoever, filling the position of trustee, especially to this specific group of people. Reprehensible, disrespectful and unacceptable conduct. No apology can erase the damage done.

    This is conduct utterly unbecoming of a school board trustee. She needs to be removed forthwith.

    Our three white Christian grandsons are among the most loving, gentle people in this upcoming generation. Their parents are teaching them to be kind, respectful and sensitive toward humans and animals of all shapes, abilities, ages, dispositions, you name it. They do Not deserve contempt, or the diminished human rights that such extremist bullies as Trustee Ashby would impose on them. It hurts and worries me to hear someone with influence make inflammatory, prejudiced, untrue statements aimed at stripping our earnest capable young people of their mutual respect and equal rights. Wendy Ashby is not suited to the role of trustee.

    Christianity is the most persecuted faith, but most religions face persecution somewhere.It is alarming that Christians are being attacked from within .
    Canada has become a shadow of itself in recent years as the extremists have taken over positions of trust through lies and manipulation . This women is a disgrace and the catholic school board must be held accountable
