Once in a while even leftist groups get it right. The BC Teachers’ Federation. They have "denied specialist recognition of a Holocaust education group, making it ineligible to receive union funding as a teaching resource." That means these specialists who will be inserting Jewish ethnic history into the province’s curriculum, will not be able to pick the pockets of fellow teachers to pay for their curriculum material. The Jewish community is the richest in Canada. Surely, they should have to pay to insert their own WW II history, by provincial mandate, into the province’s curriculum. We can expect another tirade of German-bashing and guilt mongering. Of course, other ethnic groups with sad stories to tell — the Ukrainian holodomor, the clearance of the Scottish Highlands, the Irish potato famine and aftermath — do not by right have their ethnic history by law inserted into the province’s curriculum

B.C. teachers’ union denies Holocaust education group status for funding
BCTF told Holocaust and Antisemitism Educators Association it won’t be recognized as specialist group

Jewish organizations say the British Columbia Teachers’ Federation has denied specialist recognition of a Holocaust education group, making it ineligible to receive union funding as a teaching resource.

A joint statement from the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver and the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs says the union told them it would not recognize the Holocaust and Antisemitism Educators Association as a specialist group.

The association was created in response to the B.C. government’s decision last year to make Holocaust education a mandatory part of the curriculum.

At an unrelated news conference on Wednesday, Premier David Eby didn’t address the dispute, but said the direction is clear that students graduating from high school need to learn about the murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime in the Second World War.

Eyal Daniel, president of the association, says they were shocked by the decision and are hoping the teachers’ federation will reverse its decision.
