Dr. Seuss book 'Yertle the Turtle' banned from B.C. Canada classroom

...

Is this BC schoolboard saying, "We can't have the bottom 99% have the same rights as the top elite 1%."?

Now, a Grade 1 teacher at a Prince Rupert elementary school has been told by the school district she could be disciplined for having the quote "I know, up on the top you are seeing great sights, but down here at the bottom we, too, should have rights" on her clothing or in her vehicle while on school property.

The quote comes from Dr. Seuss's book Yertle the Turtle, in which Yertle orders the other turtles to stack up on one another so he can climb to the top and see all there is to see.
