What a shock.

The EMSB responded: https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/were-not-going-to-just-sit-there-and-take-it-emsb-says
Whatever happens to the EMSB it had better not impact the performance of its schools. The average scores of the schools in the EMSB consistently ranks as the best compared against any other board in Quebec.

The guy who is not going “to sit there and take it” is the embodiment of why the entire school board structure is coming down.
Who is Michael Cohen and what does he do?
I know he writes for “The Suburban” “Mike Cohen blogs on breaking news, rumours, celebrity sightings and up to date reports on Montreal media news.” Celebrity sightings indeed…
He is also a Cote St Luc City councillor and hates bikes.“The annual Tour de l’Île de Montréal has been a thorn in my side for decades, I am not a cyclist and I resent the fact that this event paralyzes the city one Sunday each year…”
More importantly he works with this group of six people whose job it is is to shine shinola for the EMSB.

Here is there mandate:
“The EMSB Communications and Marketing Division falls under the Secretary General’s Office and oversees all aspects of media relations, publications, marketing, promotions, advertising, special events, social media, web design and content. Please read about all of the services & resources we provide and feel free to access relevant information and material.”
No thanks.

Does anyone know if a copy of the report has been made public? I’m curious to know if there’s anything about hiring practices.
