According to the Toronto District School Board (the largest public school board in Canada, which is funded by taxpayers), the definition of racism is as such:
Racism: While people in different contexts can experience prejudice or discrimination, racism, in a North American context, is based on an ideology of the superiority of the white race over other racial groups.

The TDSB is also under the gun for allowing Friday lunchtime Islam prayer services led by an Imam in the public school cafeteria, where the boys are in the front, and a barrier segregates the girls who are behind the boys. Menstruating girls (ages 11-14) are at the very back, not being allowed to pray because they are “unclean”.

Of course, any forms of religious observances are not allowed in public schools: you can't even put up a Christmas Tree.
Toronto likes to think of themselves as the center of the universe in Canada, but as we all know, being so is just like the center of a cesspool: that’s the point where all the crap, garbage, and scum collects.
