安大略禁止对特别会议进行现场直播,这引发了对透明度和包容性的反响。 Ontario bans live-streaming of special ed meetings, sparking backlash over transparency and inclusion.

安大略教育部长Paul Calandra已禁止特殊教育咨询委员会在五个省管理的学校董事会举行现场直播会议, Ontario’s Education Minister Paul Calandra has banned live-streaming of Special Education Advisory Committee meetings across five provincially managed school boards, drawing criticism from disability advocates like David Lepofsky. 他们认为这一举动破坏了透明度,限制了家长的参与(特别是对残疾学生的家庭而言),并削弱了问责制,因为流传的流体以前允许远程参与,减少了孤立,提高了公众对诸如人员不足等系统性问题的认识。 They argue the move undermines transparency, limits parental involvement—especially for families of students with disabilities—and weakens accountability, as livestreams previously allowed remote participation, reduced isolation, and raised public awareness of systemic issues like understaffing. 虽然部长提到隐私和会议基调问题, 维权人士认为SEAC会议避免个人信息, 保持尊重, 书面记录无法反映实时讨论。 While the minister cited privacy and meeting tone concerns, advocates say SEAC meetings avoid personal information, respectfulness is maintained, and written records don’t capture real-time discussions. 他们敦促部长撤销禁令,指出禁令不花费任何费用,与包容性治理目标背道而驰。 They urge the minister to rescind the ban, noting it costs nothing and contradicts inclusive governance goals.
