A July 10, 2015 Globe and Mail article is entitled: “TDSB director accused of ‘destructive attacks’ to muzzle critics.”

The concluding paragraphs read:

“Since Ms. Wilson submitted her report – which documented problems including fears among many employees that their e-mails and telephone calls are monitored – four of the eight senior staffers who reported directly to Ms. Quan have resigned.

“Ms. Quan’s treatment of Mr. Goodman, who did not seek re-election last fall, has left some questioning her leadership. ‘She derailed his life for the better part of a year, brought unnecessary angst and heartache, and now it’s found groundless – and she’s director of education for a school board?’ said John Campbell, a former board chair and now a Toronto city councillor. ‘She doesn’t belong in that job.’ ”
