OTTAWA, TORONTO, MONTREAL—Thousands of demonstrators marched in cities across Canada on Sept. 20 to protest against the teaching of gender ideology in schools. Counter-protesters were also present, accusing the other side of spreading “hate.”
The national event, dubbed the “1 Million March for Children” was created in response to parents’ concerns about Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) being taught in schools. The main website for the event lists its goals as eliminating the SOGI curriculum, pronouns, and mixed-gender bathrooms.
