Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre doesn’t know if he’ll attend the “Million Person March” against gender ideology being taught in schools, but he says parents should be the arbiters on how children are educated.

While attending a Pakistan Independence Day event in Toronto on Aug. 20, Mr. Poilievre was asked by Awaz media whether he will attend the march, according to social media posts.
