An Ontario teacher who was silenced and removed from a school board meeting for questioning the age-appropriateness of gender-transition content in some elementary school library books says she is appealing a court decision that declined a judicial review of the board’s action.

The Divisional Court of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice said it would not review the action by the Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) to stop Carolyn Burjoski’s presentation back in January 2022. The court ruled on Nov. 29 that the school board was within its rights and was following its bylaws to protect minority voices.
