The Toronto District School Board, [...], said in January that the addresses, health card numbers, emergency contacts and some medical information of more than 1.49 million students may have been stolen.

presumably this links the names of children to their addresses

PowerSchool was aware as of Dec 28

The federal watchdog knew about it on Jan 20

I learned about it 47 days after PowerSchool knew about it; I hope the parents were notified sooner than this.

Private organizations subject to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act are required to alert the privacy commissioner of any breach involving personal information that could harm the affected individuals. They must also inform the affected individuals.

The #TDSB has an operating budget of $3.4 Billion and a deficit of $26.5 million. That's peanuts. Now the TDSB is calling for closing schools in Toronto, to make up the gap.

This seems like a manufactured crisis. The TDSB is not saying what schools it wants to close.

Somethings doesn't smell right.

We need neighbourhood schools. Shouldn't have to bus kids around.
