But after the expulsion, both were denied entry to another school and, according to Raso, no clear explanation was offered.

In a statement to CBC News, the TCDSB said the board has a general rule that two people — regardless of whether they are brothers — who are involved in the same misconduct and are expelled aren't sent to the same school.

These two brothers had a history of getting into trouble together, so the school as per policy denied accepting both of them together, which makes a lot of sense. At this point the CBC should have realized their was no racism involved and that they no longer had a story. Yet they still published this story because allegations and theories of racism don't need to be supported. They give radical advocates a voice and get to slander the Catholic school board.

Paul Raso, now an advocate in Jane-Finch community, says school board failed the student and his brother

Their parents failed them. The school board sunk 10x the average amount of student resources on these two trouble making drains on the system.
