October 23, 2006 walkout

On October 23, 2006, approximately 200 students walked out of class and the school, in protest of comments made by a Halifax Herald reporter, who had called all Richmond Academy students racist against the aboriginal students that go to the school. The protest started at 9:00am, while classes resumed for the students remaining in the school. At 11:30am the conflict was resolved peacefully, when the reporter who made the comments agreed to come to the school to apologize.^{[citation needed]}
