But the question of whether there should be prayers in school doesn't explain the hatred and abuse. My Montreal school used to sing hymns and pray the Lord's prayer. Then, in the sixties, they decided that didn't make sense in schools with such a large Jewish population. I don't remember any violence over the decision to get rid of the hymnbook and the prayers. There is something deeply wrong in Peel region that the school board has been fuelling. We need to solve whatever it is. Perhaps, hate speech in schools should be prosecuted???
