A large crowd gathered at Oakville High School Friday to protest the Halton District School Board’s (HDSB) decision to stand behind a biological male teacher transitioning to female, while wearing revealing clothing over gigantic prosthetic breasts, when teaching classes..The crowd gathered as classes were let out, with a number of students joining the protest..In response to the large gathering outside the school, police units were called for crowd and traffic control and to secure the area. A user on social media shared images of officers on the school's roof alongside what appears to be surveillance equipment. Another image shows a police CCTV station set up in the area..The rally was organized by Michael Bator, PPC party candidate in Burlington, ON, who wrote on Twitter, “We have reached a new level of depravity. With all of the stealing of parental rights we are now seeing the devastating impact that the 'Woke Agenda' is having on our society.” . Kayla LemieuxKayla Lemieux .After the rally was announced, Ontario’s Education Minister Stephen Leece asked the Ontario College of Teachers to review its standards in light of the teacher’s controversial appearance in classrooms..“In this province, in our schools, we celebrate our differences and we also believe there must be the highest standards of professionalism when in front of our kids,” said Leece.. Kayla LemieuxKayla Lemieux .“And on that basis, I’ve asked the Ontario College of Teachers to review and to consider strengthening those provisions with respect to professional conduct, which we think would be in the interest of all kids in Ontario.”.In a release, the HDSB said “At the Sept. 21 Board of Trustees meeting, trustees passed a motion requesting the director of education to return to the board before the end of November with a report for information addressing various considerations regarding dress codes.”.HDSB says its dress code is designed “to promote and support a positive learning environment in schools consistent with our values and to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for all students, staff and the community, regardless of their race, age, ability, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, cultural observance, socio-economic circumstances, or body type/size.” .It also specifically prevents wearing clothing that exposes or makes visible genitals and nipples.. Kayla LemieuxKayla Lemieux .In a remarkable statement, HDSB Director Curtis Ennis, said the dress code applies to students, not teachers, adding “We're committed to supporting all our teachers and staff and students in an environment that holds their dignity, their gender identity and their gender expression issues around safety and we continue to deal with those issues not just with only this teacher, but with all teachers.”.The board maintained its support of the teacher, who calls herself Kayla Lemieux, saying “it is committed to establishing and maintaining a safe, caring, inclusive, equitable and welcoming learning and working environment for all students and staff.”.On Twitter, Maxime Bernier, leader of the PPC party, said another rally is planned for Sept. 25..“You must have seen pictures of this pervert go viral on the internet in the past few days. This man is a teacher at Oakville Trafalgar High School in Ontario, where he wears his hyper sexualized and grotesque costume every day at school,” said Bernier.."School must be a safe place for our kids. It is not the case with that teacher. He is using school to promote his sick sexual fantasies, so we must stop that and that’s why I am leading a protest this Sunday, Sept. 25." .“So, parents come with me and we will call for the school board to end all that.”.Bernier invites you to RSVP on the party’s website and sign a petition: peoplepartyofcanada.ca/pervert
