Do we really
need Pride month? Do we really need Pride parades, Pride flags and Pride school
events? Discrimination and acts of hate against members of any group are
unacceptable, but it seems bizarre that all forms of sexuality must be
celebrated except the union of one man and one woman. The rest of us who are
not having their sexuality celebrated are experiencing Pride fatigue from
having this agenda constantly being thrown in our faces.
The participants in Pride Parades seem to be immune from prosecution from public nudity displayed in front of the onlookers that include children. Why parents would take their child to a Pride Parade is another issue. Sado-masochism and is a featured theme of some of the costumes and sex acts are simulated. The Toronto Pride Parades have included naked men and women for years which the Attorney General, the Toronto Police and the City of Toronto have declined to do anything about. It is a common feature at Pride Parades around the country.
Issues with the
Pride flag have been particularly divisive. Many Canadians feel that the Pride
flag displayed in Ottawa with the same status as the flag of Canada
is inappropriate. An LGBTQ group in Norwich, Ontario has filed a human rights
complaint against the township because they will not display the Pride flag on
civic property. The Ontario township of Emo, population of about 1,300 has been fined $10,000 and its mayor $5,000 for refusing to declare Pride Month and not displaying the Pride flag, even though the town does not have an official flag pole. This was the result of a decision by a Human Rights Tribunal acting on complaints by LGBTQ activists claiming discrimination. It also cost the township thousands of dollars in legal fees. The town officials were also ordered to undergo "human rights" training. Other municipalities and some schools have likewise declined to
display the Pride flag, with resulting fines against some municipalities going back to 1995 for not declaring Pride week.
There is even an organization that keeps track of how inclusive the workplace of companies are toward the LGBTQ+ community. The Human Rights Campaign, an advocacy group, scores companies on how well they do.
The whole
concept has been taken to an absurd level, especially where schools are
concerned. Schoolchildren, even with kids too young to have any understanding
of sex, are being forced to attend Pride events. One school had guards at the
exits to prevent anyone from escaping a Pride assembly. A teacher in Alberta told a Muslim student to get out of Canada
if he wanted to avoid the school's Pride events. Two provinces, Ontario and BC have
instructed their school boards that failure to have Pride events at schools is
a violation of human rights.
In response,
mass absences have taken place at schools on the days of Pride events. This has
been attributed to Muslim students but there has been no examination of the
true makeup of the absentee students.
Another battle
in the gender wars has been waged by 2SLGBTQ+ activists in Toronto schools about an activity where men
masquerading as women recite stories and sing songs, known as "drag queen
story time", to six to 13 year olds. How did this become a thing? Because
the Toronto District School Board policy allows parents to opt-out and attend
other activities instead, fanatical activists have called the policy outrageous,
dangerous and hateful and in breach of Ontario's human rights code. Another
case where the LGBTQ community says parents should have no say in the education
of their children and their exposure to their gender-bending agenda, even
before their young bodies know what sex is.
And
never one to pass up an opportunity to look ridiculous, the Mad King of Woke,
Justin Trudeau, is the only world leader to have appeared on a television show
devoted to drag queens, "Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World". As if he
hasn't been embarrassing enough to the country.
