‘It is incumbent on all school boards to ensure all students – most especially 2SLGBTQ+ students – feel supported, reflected in their schools, and welcomed within our communities,’ said Ontario’s education minister.
As parents and students across Canada protest the celebration of so-called “Pride Month” this June, education officials in Ontario and British Columbia have released statements warning schools that failure to celebrate “2SLGBTQ+ students” may be a violation of the Human Rights Code.
“In accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code, it is our professional and legal duty at OCDSB to foster a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment for all identities,” the email stated. “The exclusion or erasure of 2SLGBTQ+ identities from educational materials constitutes a form of discrimination,” it added.
Why doesn’t someone start a “straight-white-Chrisitian” month and see if that gets defended by the Human Rights Code or would the education minister just say we’re priviliged by birthrite instead. What a bunch of idiots.
