A Toronto high school teacher who had been running a Linux lab for five years was forced to close it down last week by the school’s administration following the implementation of a Microsoft-based, school board-wide computing initiative

Ed Montgomery, a computer science teacher at Monarch Park Collegiate, said in an e-mail to ITBusiness.ca that he was given a note in May, telling him that the Linux lab would be dismantled and replaced with a Microsoft-based Classroom Migration Technology Initiative (CTMI) lab.
