Canadians are beginning to find their voice and say no to the regressive gender ideology in society.
“The reason these parents were protesting is simple. They do not want their children to learn that ‘everyone has a gender identity’, to be asked for their ‘pronouns’, or to be told they may have been ‘born in the wrong body’. Parents do not want their kids learning that their families are ‘bigoted’ or ‘abusive’ because they believe their children’s bodies are perfect just the way they are. They do not agree that it is possible to ‘identify’ as the opposite sex.
Yet this is precisely what is being taught in Canadian classrooms as part of the so-called SOGI (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity) curriculum. Primary-school kids learn that ‘When babies are born, doctors and parents usually decide if the baby is a boy or girl’, but that ‘not everybody will grow up feeling like or identifying as a boy or a girl’. And they are told they should ‘look for clues’ that reveal a boy is really a girl.
Lesson plans for teachers suggest they ask pupils, ‘What does it mean to feel like a boy or to feel like a girl?’. A suggested activity in one lesson plan instructs teachers to ‘ask everybody to walk around the classroom and introduce themselves and ask each other what their names are and what pronouns they should use’.
These kinds of practices have been adopted in public schools across Canada, with zero input or consultation with parents or voters. Many have felt voiceless on these issues. Contacting our MPs and the media has proven fruitless. The One Million March offered the silent majority a chance to stand up and speak out.
While most of the rallies across Canada were enormously successful, the march I attended in Victoria, British Columbia was shut down prematurely.
I was informed, halfway through my speech, that the police had demanded my mic be cut. Counter-protesters had swarmed the area, aggressively pushing their way to the front of the rally, while screaming at and being physically aggressive towards the children, parents and grandparents in attendance. They then attempted to attack the stage. The police determined the situation was too dangerous and that they could no longer protect attendees, and so they shut down the rally, just 30 minutes in. Ironically, it is those claiming to advocate ‘love’ and ‘inclusivity’ who consistently use bullying, threats and violence to silence views they disapprove of.”

The tragic aspect to this is that the “progressive’s” insistence on telling lies to kids is that now there is no middle ground. No situation can be assessed on what it actually is, it must be branded as extremism to believe that parents should be the final arbiter of the medical treatment given to their children, provided that does not include garlic poultices instead of medical treatment for meningitis or refusing life-saving heart surgery because of a religious viewpoint. Gender Ideology is just that — an ideology. It should have nothing to do with children’s treatment of mental health issues. Growing up is tough, always has been. Being fed a bucket of baloney at school is not any kind of solution. I’m just so completely fed up with our media grovelling at the feet of the Trans Movement, editorializing everything and completely ignoring the major changes that have occurred in the UK and Scandinavia. Has the CBC said a word about the Cass Report? Has White Coat Black Art looked at the effects of puberty blockers? Does every story about a protest ignore the reason for the protest and include an interview from a supporter of Gender Ideology? of course it does. The word journalism means nothing anymore. And yet the “good guys” are the one threatening women’s safety to the point that even the police give in.
