ANALYSIS | A Montreal elementary school is at the centre of a secularism debate. Here's how we got here | CBC News

Four teachers at Bedford Elementary School in Montreal were suspended for teaching their students a lesson about secularism that included discussing the Charlie Hebdo attacks and racial inequality. The teachers argue that they were unfairly targeted and that the lesson was intended to foster critical thinking and empathy. The school board has stated that the teachers were suspended for not following the curriculum, but the incident has sparked a debate about freedom of speech and the role of education in addressing sensitive topics.
