A Catholic school board trustee in Red Deer could face dismissal from her role after public backlash from a social media post that likened LGBTQ pride to Nazi Germany.
Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools issued a news release on Wednesday confirming it had held a special board meeting on Tuesday regarding LaGrange’s post on Instagram.
Salm said the social media post was “unbecoming of an ACSTA director” and “has the potential to undermine the charitable learning environment offered by Alberta’s Catholic school system.”
Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides told CBC in a written statement that the board has “full authority and autonomy” to disqualify a sitting trustee.
In its news release, the school board said the division is built on a foundation of providing "quality inclusive education, diversity, trustworthiness, and a commitment to the well-being of our students.
“Not only does it serve to undermine the atrocities of the Nazi regime, but it also acts as a form of oppression to entice further hatred toward members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community,” ATA president Jason Schilling said in a statement.

Comparing anything that is happening that falls short of the systematic murder of more that 10 million people to the systematic murder of 10 million people is going to get you in trouble. This hateful asshole said the quiet part out loud and is now suffering the consequences of her actions. She should have been dismissed immediately.
There needs to be a conversion camp for Nazi assholes and sympathizers. That is something that may be changeable. Give 'em all the time in the world to make the change.
Well the Catholic Church didn’t have a lot to say about the nazis when all that shit was going down in the first place. And their record about other atrocities, particularly in Canada, is not great either. So maybe this lady should have just kept her fucking mouth shut. I hope they fire her.

Could face dismissal?
Could?
How about should?
How about will?

Agreed. Teaching an irrational hatred for people with different sexualities and identities is brainwashing. Nobody is born hating.
