Haza Salam was the sole musical accompaniment to a slide show of Canadian soldiers and words about peace shown at three Remembrance Day ceremonies for different age groups at Sir Robert Borden school in Ottawa .
The musical selection was distracting and distressing to some in the audience, particularly Jewish students.
Principal Aaron Hobbs defended the selection during one of those meetings, saying it was chosen to bring diversity and inclusion.
He later sent an email to the school community apologizing.
Lisa MacLeod , member of provincial parliament for the riding of Nepean , decried the school’s assembly.
She said using the song did not follow the Royal Canadian Legion protocols and was distressing to Jewish students.
MacLeod is calling for discipline against the principal.
Hobbs did not respond to phone messages or emails from National Post .
