Teacher allegedly showed Charlie Kirk assassination video to 10 and 11-year-olds,
By Anthony Blair
A public school teacher has been suspended after allegedly showing a video of Charlie Kirk’s assassination to students as young as 10 in his class, authorities in Canada said.
The teacher also suggested that Kirk deserved to be killed, and gave the young students a speech about anti-fascism and transgender issues, according to a report.
“Several students from his class went home and complained to their parents, traumatized at witnessing the on-camera death, which they were forced to witness numerous times over,” a source told the Toronto Sun after the shocking incident at a school in Toronto on Thursday.

Kirk was fatally shot during an event at Utah Valley University, in Orem, Utah on September 10.
“Parents subsequently reached out to school administrators, who will be putting him on leave at the start of the school day September 12th 2025.”
The source added: “While playing this video repeatedly, he gave a speech to his students regarding anti-fascism, anti-trans, and how Charlie Kirk deserved for this to occur.”
A letter was sent home on Friday to all students affected by the showing of the video, calling the teacher’s alleged behavior “extremely troubling and completely disturbing,” the Toronto Sun reports.

“During class, students were said to have been shown a portion of a violent video in response to questions being asked about a recent tragic event in the United States,” read the letter signed by Corvette Junior Public School Principal Jennifer Koptie.
The letter stated that the video was allegedly shown to students in grades 5 and 6 — typically aged 10-11 — by a staff member who was supervising a French immersion class and was not the regular teacher.

“While an investigation must still be conducted to learn all of the details, the report of this incident is extremely troubling and completely unacceptable,” the letter continued.
“We recognize the seriousness of this matter and have taken immediate steps to follow all appropriate policies and procedures,” Koptie wrote.
“The teacher has been relieved of all teaching responsibilities pending the outcome of the investigation and will not be at the school,” the letter continued. Assistance is being offered to any children traumatized by the incident, Koptie said.
