The incident unfolded on Friday, Feb. 11 at Southern Okanagan Secondary School in Oliver, B.C., when a convoy of vehicles arrived, ostensibly to support student walkouts over mask mandates promoted by protest groups across the country.
"We thought they were people coming to pick up their kids who just happened to have Canada flags," she said. "But then there got to be more and more."
After about 15 minutes, Allen says things turned "hostile" as one adult singled out a student of South Asian descent.
In a video filmed by another student, a woman identified by RCMP as Silke Schulze of Oliver, B.C., can be seen leaning toward the student and yelling, "I have a f--ing right to be in this country, do you?"
In a second video, Schulze calls the student an expletive and walks away.
"She was telling us we're stupid and we're like, 'You're literally arguing with children,'" Allen said.
