Grade 8 Teacher Gives Crystal Meth Homework - Toronto

This just happened and, after the story broke, is now being buried in the local and national news. School board and trustees, which are mostly liberal and gay, have clammed up. Teacher's name not released, which is very unusual.

Drama teacher gives homework to grade 8's. It included an exact recipe for how to make crystal meth. The teacher instructed students to "act nervous" when making it, "act anxious" when pretending to take it, and "act euphoric" when its in your system - this was detailed on the radio story yesterday. Parent rightfully freaks out. The local radio news (CBC 1) told of that parents shock then actually added a rebuttal in the narrative, claiming another parent they contacted didn't mind and saw the value in this.
