Abstract
ABSTRACT. This paper argues that recent Charter decisions concerning the off duty expressive conduct of teachers have involved a narrow or “orthodox᾿ interpretation of the reasonable limits on such expression. The author illustrates what he describes as a “messy area᾿ by taking us through the controversial and well-known examples of Shewan and Shewan; the Malcolm Ross case; and the primary focus of the case comment, a recent British Columbia decision involving Chris Kempling. The author wonders whether judicial orthodoxy regarding teacher conduct, expression and opinion helps or hinders the fundamental objectives of public education and censors their autonomy for open discussion of important social, ethical and political issues. LE PROBLEME AVEC LES ENSEIGNANTS HERETIQUES : KEMPLING V. BRITISH COLUMBIA COLLEGE OF TEACHERS RESUME. Cet article aborde le fait que les recentes decisions de la Charte concernant la conduite expressive en conge des enseignants ont implique une interpretation plus pointue et orthodoxe des limites raisonnables d’une telle expression. L’auteur illustre ce qu’il decrit comme une « zone trouble » en nous amenant dans les exemples controverses et bien connus de Shewan et Shewan; le cas de Malcom Ross et le sujet principal de ce commentaire de cas, une decision recente en Colombie-Britannique impliquant Chris Kempling. L’auteur se demande si une orthodoxie judiciaire concernant la conduite des enseignants, leurs expressions et leurs opinions aide ou entrave les objectifs fondamentaux de l’education publique et censure leur autonomie pour des discussions ouvertes au sujet d’importantes questions sociales, ethiques et politiques.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
