Recently, Premier Ford and Minister Lecce have both made public statements about parental rights, which may signal a policy change that would adversely affect transgender students is on the horizon in Ontario.
If such a change comes, we need to be ready. A few organizations and advocates, including Egale Canada, the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto, The Canadian Centre for Gender and Sexual Diversity, Kathleen Wynne, and others, have begun working together to make sure we are ready.
One of our first steps is mapping our allies and distribution networks. Please consider completing this form so we can stay in touch, loop you into our plans, and protect trans students together.
