One of the mandates of the IAC is to advise the Board on Intercultural concerns facing the Lester B. Pearson community. On January 29, 2018, the Council of Commissioners so affirmed, by resolution, that all forms of racism, hate, xenophobia, bigotry, including but not limited to Islamophobia, is not tolerated within the Lester B. Pearson School Board, and asked that the IAC make recommendations to them on an annual activity to counter all forms of hate and racism in our communities.
