“You’re five now, son. It’s time for you to start exploring your gender identity.”
The Toronto District School Boards Gender Independent Groups (GIG and GIG2) are groups where children and youth who are gender independent, trans*, or exploring their gender identity can come together in a supportive and affirming space. Our programs provide opportunities for parents/guardians of children who express gender independence to meet and discuss their experiences of navigating the gendered world in which we live. Children and youth are also provided with a safe space to meet and express themselves in an affirming and inclusive environment.
The first group, “GIG”, is for kids from Kindergarten to Grade 5.

Are lynch mobs no longer considered trendy?
Maybe we should rethink that.
Hanging seems a bit extreme. Tar and feathers might be a good idea though
And yet from today’s toronto star…..

Now there is a gap between one story and the other, will let you decide how big that gap is.
How to figure out your gender:
1) Walk to bathroom
2) Turn on light
3) Drop trousers
4) Look in mirror
No need to thank me, just send my grant cheque.
Post-Christian indeed. The pervs (leftwards) just can’t keep their hands off the kids, can they?
Teacher: “So what are you boys making with that pasticene, dinosaurs?
Johnny: Nope. I’m making a weiner, and Jimmy’s making a doughnut.
If you have a GIG as part of your local school board then you are definitely paying too much in local taxes. School boards have no business trying to help your kids identify their genders. I would suspect that there are too many people being employed at the TDSB if they have enough people to staff a GIG when they have kids who cannot read or are poor at math.
Two words my friends: Home. Schooling.
No longer just for Christian fundamentalists, now with new added awesome for families who don’t want their little boys frigged with by gender-bent crazy people.
Man, I can hardly wait for some turbaned Sikh guy to show up at the School Board offices, yelling and waving his kirpan. Me they can taser and beat down, that guy they’re going to have to appease and accommodate.
That’s some multicultural goodness right there.
Why should anyone be surprised when elementary teachers and gay pride organizations work hand in hand to push their personal agendas under the bullying programs ? Social engineering at its best, funded by taxpayers and endorsed by less than 3% of the population. This Trojan horse has a lot of politically correct legs.

This is from the Onion, right? Don’t kid now, such things CAN’T be possible in a sane world, right? NO educational system could possibly…..oh, wait..
Those posters–revealing as they do the pernicious influence of the LGBT crowd on young developing brains–are EVEN MORE disturbing than the actions of the idiotic school board..
This is just child abuse hiding behind the skirts of PC lunacy.
Hey Jamie! I know the rest of that story. Johnny grows up to be premier of Ontario, and Jimmy becomes a metaphorical representation his rural subjects. Later, Johnny is rewarded by a life of ease at Harvard.

Ten Years Old and Barefoot
How did life get so messed up?
Insert picture of Levin, Trudeau and Wynne here.
This is not a difficult subject. The perpetual boner I had from the age of 10 to 20 when I was in the presence of females and the lack thereof in the presence of males was a big clue. Had I expressed a desire to play with dolls rather than kill things imaginatively or literally, I can only hope that I got the proper attitude adjustment from siblings rather than counseling. But people don’t have siblings anymore.
At least the “safe injection sites” dont start until grade 6.
This is the result of eco-facism. Take a gander at the goals outlined by Paul Ehrlich in his book the ‘Population Bomb” and you’ll discover that each and every goal to limit the growth of population is being achieved. A few of Ehrlich’s solutions:
-make it too expensive to have children (under economic solutions)
-free access to abortion and birth control
-environmental influenced infertility (infertility numbers have increased quantumly in the last 40 years in both males and females-he advocated sterilizing females w/o permission and males to a lesser extent, through the water and food supply-seriously, look it up)
-promotion of homosexual lifestyle
-taxation penalties for married couples
-early s e x education with a focus on birth control
This belongs in the readers tips but it’s too funny!

Too few charging ports for electric cars in Silicon Valley creates ‘charge rage’ incidents

How did the education system trans from ABC’s to quirky birds and bees?
“How did the education system trans from ABC’s to quirky birds and bees?”
That’s what happens when you keep finding new closets and cages to open.
…and then they have the chutzpah to claim that there’s no link between homosexuality and paedophilia!
the greatest “population” control happens to be fiscal success. When ppl have money to do things they want, rather than just meet bills, they don’t want to be encumbered by “children”. Your schpeel sounds good, but doesn’t add up, correlation does not prove causative. Now don’t get me wrong, some of the things on that list are being pushed, but that doesn’t mean they are the cause of reduced child birth.
there is alittle known secret in alberta most don’t realize but my church has…..we have a publicly funded “program of choice” aka a Christian program in the public school system.
our first year no one knew about it and so we just had enough to fill the classrooms.
second year under way ….there is a waiting list and yes people are even moving from Calgary to my city JUST to have a chance at this. It is perfectly legal in alberta but not in anyother provinces.
wait till the word get’s out across the nation. school fees are slightly higher simply because we have our pastor who spends a few hours a week with the kids, the teachers must MUST, be practicing Christians ,and have proof from there church pastor that they attend regularly, in addition they also MUST agree to teach the the faith (Lutheran) that is program is centered around.
NO not the gay marring Lutheran please folks lets not go there the larger gay marrying Lutheran church in Canada is NOT the one I am part of the Lutheran LCC church is very conservative the other Lutheran church ELCC had a hissy fit awhile ago because there was a number of pastors who refused to please mankind and agree to marry homosexuals ,or have female pastors, and a few other things..so the true Christians stayed with LCC and the homo lovers went and formed the ELCC
SSSSSHHHHH be vewy vewy quiet!!
This is growing very fast and very quietly.
depends on what you believe …if you believe in having lots of stuff and doing lots of things is that important then sure but you can still do lots of fun exciting things and still have 4 kids.
priorities I guess.
I would rather have 4 kids and live in a trailer and work through life then have millions of dollars and do everything and have everything. it’s what the individual values more and it varies right some people want kids but they want to do things too so they have 1or2…
People value things today more than they value life so in this materialistic society the liberal atheists have developed. It’s all about the selfish self centered self its all about material things to fill the hollowed out core of there humanity. It annoy’s the crap out of atheists to see Christians living in a trailer smiling and laughing and loving there 5 kids. They loath Christ. So they turn to his NME for comfort and he gives it to them through material things and instant gratification and an unrepentant attitude.
English Standard Version; Luke 17-2:
“It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.”
Of course we keep hearing how teachers and their unions are not political and only want what’s best for the children. Sure they do.

What makes you think a 7 year old needs your guidance in matters that haven’t manifested themselves yet? How can you be lost if you have no destination yet?
How could they even formulate a question.. How could they describe their feelings?
Such glaring ignorance towards what little good is left in our society (children) is mind blowing..
“Hey, teacher! Leave those kids alone!”
“What makes you think a 7 year old needs your guidance in matters that haven’t manifested themselves yet? How can you be lost if you have no destination yet?”
Well, exactly. Reminds me of a line from that John Candy film “Uncle Buck” where he tells off the principal at his niece’s school:
“I don’t think I want to know a six-year-old who isn’t a dreamer, or a sillyheart. And I sure don’t want to know one who takes their student career seriously.”
Good one. Really fits the narrative.

Although correlation does not always mean cause, it most certainly exists 100% where cause is proven-an overused and inaccurate cliche at best.
Income and the fact that it takes both parents to work to afford a mortgage, certainly does play a role in deciding the number of children a couple decide to have, to think otherwise is not rational. The drop in birth rates coincided with the introduction and access of birth control and abortion, there is noway to remove those factors if you want to present honest data. Birth rates dropped precipitously nearing the end of 60’s and have remained low. To state that birth-control, abortion, and economic factors have no negative impact on birth rates is disingenuous at best. The global economy has been in a boom and bust cycle since the late 60’s, by the 80’s, it became nearly impossible for a couple to survive on one income.
That’s BS @ no-one
It does not take 2 parents to work to pay for a mortgage but unfortunaly in today’s hollowed out materialistic liberal atheist Canada , what you mean to say is in order to keep up with the jones and have a 2500 sq ft house that is way beyond one persons income to afford we need to work to have it and not to fill it up with kids …heck no we need an office ,a king size bed walk in closets his an her sinks ,2 car garage,”bears den” a sitting room, a tv/entertainment room a wet bar fully finished basement and in order to pay for all of this we will not have kids or have 1 maybe 2 and teach them that its all about keeping up with the jones and joining the rat race. forget about being an individual no no no we must follow ….lol. absolutely pathetic.
my friend has 3 siblings lived in a 2 bedroom house his dad made a couple bedrooms in the basement out of sheet rock and some 2×4’s and paint…I know this cus I also lived there that’s 5 kids 7 mouths to feed and he did it on his own working construction how? they bought a house that was 60k in the 80’s and still live there today. what was once cramped is now a mansion to them . but you don’t get that.
Yes, Mr. No-one. The proper formulation of the near-clichéd axiom is, “Correlation is not sufficient proof of causation.” Correlation is, however, absolutely necessary to establish causation, and always present when causation is present.
