Summary
In this episode, we discuss the Durham District School Board's response to a question submitted by a parent about mental health and well-being in the school system. The board's response is not only disappointing, but also causes parents to question the board's own policies and practices.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
As a person who speaks internationally on health and resilience, I'm extremely concerned about
00:00:14.520
policies being promoted by Durham District School Board under the mental health and well-being.
00:00:20.440
My question to the board is what are you doing to course correct and improve mental health
00:00:25.520
and well-being for our students? I'd like your answer to address these three areas that
00:00:30.640
deeply affect emotional and psychological safety and well-being for our children, even
00:00:36.120
the parents and communities. These policies are causing massive harm with fear-mongering,
00:00:42.880
division and hate, and our children are suffering because of it.
00:00:47.320
Number one, fear. This would enforce the worst lockdowns in the world during COVID without
00:00:52.640
proper science. Force our children to mask without following safety regulations. They
00:00:57.760
only stopped this abuse when concerned parents pressured the board multiple times. This has
00:01:03.040
still caused massive mental and physical health issues.
00:01:06.320
Number two, division. This board promotes Marxist ideologies like critical race theory, which
00:01:12.800
teaches the kids to identify as victims or label others as persecutors. All kids are wonderful
00:01:19.280
and beautiful, but critical race theory teaches hate and division instead of love and respect.
00:01:27.600
This board needs to stop dividing groups and stop the discriminatory practice of flying special
00:01:35.600
national interest flags that favour one group instead of unifying all kids.
00:01:53.440
these policies need to unify all kids independent of race, gender, sexual preference or economic status
00:02:00.080
with our one great Canadian flag and common Canadian values like respect and tolerance.
00:02:08.400
Number three, this board needs to stop teaching hate. They are teaching false gender ideologies that's causing
00:02:19.200
So, okay, I am going to... I have cut you off because this is longer than the question that you had submitted to be provided.
00:02:41.280
Could you please be removed but no step away from the podium,
00:02:45.520
as you've already asked the question and it was not the one that was submitted? Thank you.
00:03:20.640
The next question, the next question we're moving on to, as far as the G, the next question
00:04:36.860
I just returned from the Durham District School Board meeting tonight and wow, was it a doozy.
00:04:42.860
I had an important question to ask about mental health and well-being for our children.
00:04:53.520
And I've seen really troubling signs over the last few years, as have many other parents.
00:04:59.060
I was able to only read part of my question and then the microphone was shut off.
00:05:04.540
So many questions, many parents afterwards came up and asked me to post my complete statement.
00:05:14.400
As a person who speaks internationally on health and resilience, I'm extremely concerned
00:05:19.060
about the harmful policies being promoted by Durham District School Board.
00:05:23.260
My question to the board is what are you doing to improve the mental health and well-being
00:05:28.760
I'd like your answer to address three areas that deeply affect emotional and psychological
00:05:33.680
safety and well-being for our kids, parents and communities where your policies are causing
00:05:39.240
massive harm, creating fear, division and hate.
00:05:44.500
Number one, this board enforced the worst lockdowns in the world during COVID without following
00:05:49.880
proper science and forced our kids to wear masks without following safety regulations.
00:05:55.620
They only stopped this abusive practice when concerned parents pressured them multiple times.
00:06:01.780
They never apologized for the massive mental and physical health issues they caused and how
00:06:12.460
This board promotes Marxist ideologies like critical race theory that teach kids to identify
00:06:22.620
CRT teaches hate and division instead of love and respect.
00:06:29.620
Every child matters independent of the color of their skin.
00:06:34.620
And all the parents came together tonight to say that loudly and the board wasn't listening.
00:06:45.860
This board needs to stop dividing groups and stop the discriminatory practice of flying special
00:06:53.460
interest flags that favor one group over another instead of unifying all kids independent of
00:07:00.020
race, gender, sexual preferences or economic status with our one great Canadian flag and
00:07:08.140
Number three, this board needs to stop teaching children to hate their bodies and themselves with
00:07:17.180
That's causing an epidemic of gender dysphoria and self-hatred and instead teach kids to love
0.74
00:07:25.640
and accept themselves and accept their God-given genders.
00:07:28.680
When did this board become an agent of big pharma?
00:07:33.200
Is there not legal liability in downplaying the harm of dangerous experimental drugs like Lupron
00:07:38.620
amid the growing number of lawsuits who permanently damage kids who are more depressed than ever?
00:07:46.280
However, stop sexualizing our children and normalizing sterilization.
0.59
00:07:51.540
Let kids make personal, permanent, life-altering decisions on medical procedures without school
00:07:58.840
interference or pressure and let them do it when they're more mature.
00:08:03.280
The result of your policies is that our kids are sicker and more anxious than ever and they're
00:08:08.720
falling behind in the basic skills needed for their futures.
00:08:12.740
They're dropping out of school, failing or becoming disengaged.
00:08:16.280
Suicide rates among youth have never been higher in this country.
00:08:20.280
Isn't this a sign that the board and all the boards across Canada are going in the wrong
00:08:24.980
direction with their mental health and well-being policies?
00:08:29.200
When will you stop indoctrinating our kids to reject themselves and hate each other and
00:08:34.040
instead start teaching reading, writing and math and other important skills for their future?
00:08:41.200
This board must take immediate action to course correct or resign.
00:08:46.660
Your track record is a disaster and you need to apologize to all of the wonderful parents
00:08:52.820
here for being arrogant and not listening.
0.97
00:08:57.460
You treat them with absolute contempt and disrespect.
0.95
00:09:01.940
You have caused massive harm and need to stop now.
