I heard she lived in Vaughan with her two sons... which now makes sense to me. I was wondering why there.

Since that school is being renamed, Vaughan itself has to be renamed.

Hodan Nalayeh, Ontario?



RIP

Yes, but that’s not why. A list of names were drawn up and she was the popular choice.

Somalis cheated

Folks who had no association with the school or where even from Canada voted.

You’re off your rockers adeer. Stop acting like a mouth piece for people who look down on you.

Btw, most who voted for Hodan weren’t even Somali.

There's many schools being built every year. It was easier and preferable to get her name on a newly constructed one which would last for 100 years. I'm happy for her though.
