CTV
A school bus crash in Brantford, new details about a school board cyberattack, and large dogs being abandoned round out the most-read stories of the week.
Two people have been injured in a school bus crash that occurred Tuesday afternoon just north of Brantford, Ont., police say. Police said at the time of the crash there were only two occupants onboard the vehicle, a 13-year-old and the driver.
“Both individuals have been transported to hospital to receive treatment for non-life-threatening injuries,” police said in a news release.
Police said initial information indicates the bus rolled over. In a tweet posted at 4:44 p.m. Tuesday, police said officers are on scene of the collision at Park Road North and Governors Road East.
Nine months after a cyberattack at the Waterloo Regional District School Board (WRDSB), we’re learning more about what was impacted and how the breach was handled. On Wednesday, the board’s associate director sat down with CTV News in an exclusive interview, speaking about the incident and its aftermath for the first time.
Memos obtained through a Freedom of Information Request also shed more light on the scope of the attack. CTV News put in a request for all emails, memos and internal communication about last summer’s cyberattack.
More than 1,000 pages were identified, but ultimately the board only released 38, citing privacy and solicitor-client privilege as reasons for withholding the rest.
There were tense scenes at Kitchener’s Victoria Park Thursday as demonstrators gathered to object to the closure of Roos Island and efforts by the City of Kitchener to relocate people living in an encampment there.
