Man in Quebec flag tries to 'liberate' children from ultra-Orthodox Jewish day school

Story here

From the article:

Draped in a flag of Quebec, a middle-aged man tried to enter an ultra-Orthodox Jewish day school on Tuesday, claiming he wanted to ‘liberate’ its students.

The man drove up to the Yeshiva Gedola school on Deacon Rd. in Park Extension in a PT Cruiser, and rang on the intercom of the daycare run out of the building, said Rachel Schecter, the director of the public Centre de la Petite Enfance.

“(My staff) came to get me to say there was someone very strange at the door,” Schecter said. “When I answered through the intercom, the man told me: ‘I want to talk to the children because they are imprisoned in this school.’ He was speaking perfect French. He didn’t sound drunk or anything.”
