Student suspended for selling non-diet soda banned by school policy

Student suspended for selling non-diet soda banned by school policy - EAGnews.org:
"ALBERTA, Canada – When 17-year-old Keenan Shaw sees an opportunity, he jumps on it.
And the new diet-only soft drink rule at his Lethbridge, Alberta high school was the perfect opportunity.
“Mr. Shaw arrived at the school last week carrying a case full of pop, which was recently banned from the school,” the National Post reports. “
He began selling it to fellow students, knowing he was flouting the administration’s restrictions on the drink but not expecting the punishment.”
Sales were booming, until school administrators stepped in.
After a week of selling full flavored Pepsi from his school locker, Shaw was slapped with a two-day suspension for refusing to follow the school’s nonsensical restrictions.
“I thought it was a joke,” Shaw told the news site. “I didn’t think they could (suspend) me for selling pop.”
Lethbridge superintendent Sheryl Gilmour told the National Post said selling the illegal pop at school violated the district’s nutritional policy, as well as marketing and distribution rules.
And it wasn’t so much that Shaw violated the rules as it was his refusal to end his burgeoning business that got him in trouble, she said."
