The TDSB should get a budget cut and its 'Chief' put out to pasture. Way too much time on their hands if they can focus on such ridiculous, inconsequential matters.

Modern day language is rife with words whose etymology would be found offensive by someone if you dig deep enough. For example, people of Irish descent could easily take offence to the term 'paddy wagon'. But they don't, because like - most other ordinary people - they realize that any pejorative connotation attached to it has long since been washed from our vocabulary. 

Anyone who questions whether political correctness has gone amok in this country will have absolute proof of it after reading this nonsense article. Some groups and cultures need to stop seeing boogey-men around every corner...and mainstream media need to stop giving every silly grievance a platform for airing them.
