Protests on gender curriculum, sexual identity in schools happening in GTA

Some groups demonstrating to stop what they call 'indoctrination,' others in support of LGBTQ community

Protests and counter-protests framed around gender and sexual education in schools are taking place across the Greater Toronto Area Wednesday, and many more are planned across the country.
The initial protests were organized under the banner of the "1 Million March for Children," with the group's website saying its intent is to "protect our children from indoctrination and sexualization."
Counter-protests were organized in response, with groups meeting at places like Queen's Park, where thousands gathered. Mom and former educator Jane Agosta told CBC News that she came out in support of her child, who is currently transitioning. She said she wanted to speak out against the "inflammatory messaging" of the provincial government, spurred on after Premier Doug Ford said at an event earlier this month that teachers were "indoctrinating" kids.
