The original version of this article did not list "sex" as a protected ground. I did a direct cut and paste from the Code but I did not notice that subsections 2(2) and 5(2) which deal with harassment, don't include sex as a ground because sexual harassment is dealt with separately in Section 7. The article has now been corrected.
At the WRDSB meeting of January 24 delegate Koberinsky said: We heard last week a general reflection from the delegate who was asked to stop that we as queer folk, trans folk,,, we're all too disgusting and dangerous to talk about in schools (approx 1:04:08) Carolyn Burjoski said no such thing. Is this not slander?

This is, as are all your thoughts on these things, refreshingly grounded and sane. Thanks.
Excellent article!

Excellent and informative as always
Canada has a Bill of rights that protect the Trans community from bigoted opinion such as your own.
