Parent groups critical of the Ontario sex-ed curriculum that includes gender identity and other controversial topics staged a protest on Feb. 20 to demand that Education Minister Lisa Thompson step down from her position.

Tanya Granic Allen, president of Parents As First Educators, said Thompson has kept the curriculum of the previous Liberal government under Kathleen Wynne in place, despite PC Premier Doug Ford’s campaign promise to replace it.
