On September 20th, anti-trans and anti-2SLGBTQ activists have planned nationwide events to protest 2SLGBTQ inclusion in schools under the guise of protecting children. We know that far from protecting students, this will hurt them in so many ways.

On Friday, Premier Ford mimicked talking points from the radical right, calling school board policies in place to protect trans and gender-diverse youth a form of indoctrination. We refuse to be used as a distraction for political gain.
