  "summary": "Twelve Jewish teachers and educators have filed human rights complaints against four Ontario school boards and two teachers' unions, alleging systemic antisemitism and discrimination in their workplaces. The Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario has received the applications, naming several school boards and unions, including the Toronto District School Board and the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario. The applicants, representing themselves and seeking $150,000 each in general damages for discrimination, as well as compensation for psychological counselling, allege that they have faced discrimination due to their ethnicity and that their institutions failed to act when discrimination was reported, even penalizing them for doing so.",
