(TDSB) trustees. The
objective of the meeting was to observe the
decision making process of the trustees regarding the
inclusion of the Holodomor (Famine/Genocide in Ukraine 1932-33)
in the core curriculum on Genocides for 2008. The
trustees referred to the Holodomor as Holodomor thus indicating that
our branding of the Holodomor was successful. On 13
June 2008, articles in the Toronto Sun (page 7), the Globe and Mail (p.
A12) and the Toronto Star (p.
A17) covered the TDSB meeting. The Toronto Star didn't refer to
the Holodomor as Holodomor. In
the end the trustees voted to remain with three pre-selected genocides.
This decision ran counter to the information provided
and their own unanimous acknowledgement that there is not a person at
the Board who
would dispute the Ukrainian genocide by Stalin.
