At the TDSB, we do not tell students who they should be, but welcome them as they are. Please read our statement ahead of planned demonstrations this week: https://t.co/krBd1f8sxO

In response to 1 Million March 4 Children protests that are scheduled to take place across Canada, ETFO strongly condemns anti-2SLGBTQ+ protests.

Any actions or events that seek to undermine the rights and dignity of the 2SLGBTQ+ community must be denounced. #onpoli #onted

🚨EMERGENCY CALL TO ACTION🚨

Join 2SLGBTQ+ communities, labour groups, and allies in sending a strong message that hate has no place in Ontario.

Join us in a peaceful counter-protest on September 20, 2023 at 8:30 a.m. We will meet in Barbara Hall Park and march to Queen’s Park.

If you attend one of these counter protests, please prioritize safety, avoid conflict, and leverage the safety resources in the Ontario Federation of Labour link. 5/5

Ford's harmful comments have real-world consequences for many #2SLGBTQI+ youth!

If the gov't enacts this as policy, #OSSTF will vigorously defend its members in exercising their professional judgement in creating safe schools!

[Elementary Educators @ETFOeducators]

Dear Politicians (and others),

If you truly believe in protecting children and upholding human rights, you should not be using terms like "indoctrinate" and "woke" to scold educators, school boards, and allies for their law-abiding efforts to protect 2SLGBTQ+ students.

It's inappropriate, dangerous and demonstrates your willingness to trample on people's legal rights.

Do better.

[TorontoPflag @TorontoPflag]

Great article by a parent of a trans kid on how you support them, what the process is actually like and why kids should not be outed. Love, kindness, and support is what's needed. Hopefully, people can learn from the lived experience of trans families.

[Toronto Star @TorontoStar]

It’s a hard truth that some kids live with parents who are transphobic. No province should forcibly out gender nonconforming kids to these parents, writes Julie Malbogat. https://t.co/yzWC0VoZa9

We also urge all Toronto Pflag & other accepting families to let the minister/MPP know their thoughts on safe spaces at school and informing parents on pronoun changes. You can reach the minister at [email protected] and here's an email template https://t.co/xIlBM8LgY1

This is what happens when kids are forced to come out to non-accepting parents
