I'm not sure if any of you are aware of the recent incident At Birchmount Collegiate, a Highschool in Toronto over comments posted on a student's blog at Facebook.com, which have led to arrests of 4 students, charges laid by the school's Vice Principal and a lot of concern regarding Cyber-bullying. I recommend everyone check out the article from the Star (see links below).
