00:00:00.000 Well, I don't want to speak too soon, but it does look as though the provinces in this country
00:00:10.160 have finally located their spines and have decided to take the fight to the gender ideology
00:00:15.160 cultists running the education system. Two weeks ago, Manitoba and Saskatchewan decided to join
00:00:21.300 New Brunswick in committing to making changes to education policy, which will require teachers to
00:00:26.820 receive parental consent if their child wants to use a different name or a different pronoun
00:00:32.080 while in the classroom. In other words, teachers now have to tell parents if their child is being
00:00:37.100 socially transitioned at school, and teachers can no longer do it behind the backs of parents.
00:00:41.940 Wow, so brave. Where have these premiers been for the last two or three years? I guess better late
00:00:46.960 than never though, right? The new school season is just around the corner, and with this practice
00:00:51.060 of socially transitioning children behind the backs of their parents still taking place in schools,
00:00:56.160 it begs the question what the other provinces are doing allowing this to happen. What is Ontario
00:01:01.880 doing allowing this to happen? And what is Alberta doing, that bastion of conservatism? You might think 0.99
00:01:07.380 that withholding this rather critical information from a parent about their child socially transitioning
00:01:12.800 at school is disgusting and creepy, but in fact there's an entire ecosystem of trans activists 0.97
00:01:18.320 and teachers on TikTok breaking down over these new provincial policies, and in some cases filming 0.73
00:01:25.600 themselves crying over the fact that they will no longer be able to socially transition your child
00:01:30.580 while they're at school and you're at work. Let's take a look at some of these people who have
00:01:35.160 graciously offered themselves up to be ridiculed and mocked for their absurd takes. It's really the
00:01:40.560 least we could do. Drop a like in the video, help us out by subscribing to the True North YouTube
00:01:44.260 channel, and the common question for the episode is this. Why does any province in this country
00:01:50.480 allow teachers to socially transition students behind the backs of parents? Let me know in the
00:01:57.100 comments and let's get into it. First it was New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs who back in June
00:02:02.160 announced an update to Policy 713 which would force teachers to receive parental consent if students
00:02:10.440 are to use a different name or a pronoun while in class. And last week Manitoba Premier Heather
00:02:15.800 Stevenson, who let's just say is not known for her conservative beliefs, announced on the campaign
00:02:20.880 trial that if re-elected her government would enshrine parental rights and adopt the same policy.
00:02:26.820 And then a few days after that Saskatchewan took it one step further and immediately put into law
00:02:33.060 parental rights in the province to stop this absurd practice of socially transitioning children behind 0.86
00:02:39.260 the backs of their parents. In the province of Saskatchewan, effective immediately, just in time for the
00:02:44.560 school season to start, schools must seek parent or guardian permission when changing the preferred
00:02:49.940 name and pronoun used by students under the age of 16 in schools. Parents or guardians must be informed
00:02:56.540 that they have the option to decline their children's participation in sexual education, and boards of
00:03:02.220 education must immediately pause involvement with any third-party organizations such as ARC,
00:03:08.200 Foundation, and the SOGI 123 program connected to sexual health education, while the ministry
00:03:14.800 undertakes a review of educational resources to ensure alignment with curricular outcomes.
00:03:19.520 Now for those that are unaware, that third and final policy telling school boards to immediately
00:03:24.220 pause involvement with third-party organizations is in response to what happened when a Saskatchewan
00:03:30.420 wing of Planned Parenthood was caught handing out sexually explicit and graphic images teaching
00:03:36.700 students as young as the age of 14 fringe sex acts. Meanwhile, in Ontario, the largest province in
00:03:43.940 Canada, that government has so far refused to do anything about this practice. Just look as I tried
00:03:50.120 to confront Stephen Lecce on this issue back in June. How do you plan to hold-
00:03:55.120 I don't know if I can do this. Right here is not in the whole time.
00:03:57.360 That's really not nice.
00:03:58.760 How are you?
00:04:00.660 I just want to ask about Bill 98. Your own legislation.
00:04:04.940 Can we organize something? I don't know right now.
00:04:08.180 Okay. Can we? Can I communicate with your staff?
00:04:11.240 The province of Alberta, Daniel Smith, has also, so far, refused to stand up for parental rights.
00:04:17.580 What's going on here? But as you could have guessed, these policy changes aren't going over
00:04:22.060 too well with the gender ideology cultists and the radical left. And the opposition to
00:04:28.020 enhanced parental rights, the opposition to having parents provide consent if their own child is to be 0.63
00:04:34.560 socially transitioned, goes right to the very top of the political system in this country.
00:04:39.700 Just look at what Justin Trudeau said when New Brunswick introduced the changes to education policy.
00:04:45.140 Right now, trans kids in New Brunswick are being told they don't have the right to be their true
00:04:52.480 selves, that they need to ask permission. Well, trans kids need to feel safe, not targeted by politicians.
00:05:02.620 Trans kids need to feel safe? That is an insane thing for a leader of a country like Canada to say.
00:05:09.400 Trans kid? What even is a trans kid? I'm sorry, but that doesn't exist. 1.00
00:05:13.800 There's no such thing as a trans kid. The Saskatchewan Teachers Federation made their own video
00:05:19.300 condemning a bill that would stop gender ideology cultists from transitioning children behind the
00:05:24.620 backs of their parents. They're really upset about this new change. Take a look.
00:05:28.420 On behalf of the 13,000 teachers across Saskatchewan, I'm here to express our deep frustration and
00:05:34.980 disappointment regarding the Minister of Education's recent announcement of new parental inclusion and
00:05:40.420 consent policies. Every day, teachers work tirelessly to create inclusive learning environments
00:05:46.120 where all students feel welcomed and safe. However, this policy not only handcuffs teachers' ability to
00:05:52.060 build trust, it also dangerously threatens the safety and well-being of Saskatchewan students.
00:05:58.140 This knee-jerk reaction to an isolated incident is a significant overstep by the government.
00:06:02.940 It not only politicizes our classrooms, but it also takes us down a dangerous path without any
00:06:09.140 consultation with teachers or the public at large.
00:06:12.180 They got brutally razed on Twitter for that, by the way, and they had to hide a bunch of comments,
00:06:17.060 but this new Twitter feature allows us to read the comments they're trying to hide, and that's what
00:06:21.780 we're going to do on the show right now. Actually, the government is standing up for the tax-paying
00:06:26.320 parents of the children you are supposed to be teaching, not indoctrinating.
00:06:30.140 Don't worry, everyone. The Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation is here to save children from the
00:06:35.220 menace of, checks notes, their own parents. That's about right. Yeah, these teachers really
00:06:41.160 need to save children from their own parents. You absolute scumbags. How dare you stop creating 1.00
00:06:47.620 violence where it doesn't exist in order to emotionally manipulate people? You know who encourages
00:06:52.280 kids to hide things from their parents? Predators. People with bad intentions. People who would harm
00:06:57.820 them. There is no legitimate reason why any school board should be hiding things from parents
00:07:02.540 as a policy. If teachers have specific concerns about a specific student and that specific student's
00:07:08.320 family, then get the school counselors and resource officers involved and the police if need be.
00:07:14.460 But under no circumstances should it be a blanket policy for school boards to be complicit in lying
00:07:19.640 to parents about important issues in their child's lives. But all of that, well, it doesn't even compare
00:07:25.620 to what I can only describe as the freak show on TikTok. These activists and probably teachers
00:07:31.840 breaking down crime because they can no longer keep secrets from parents about children, because
00:07:37.400 they can no longer socially transition children behind the backs of parents. Just take a look
00:07:43.000 at some of these TikToks. Terror grips me as I bring you this news. Some quotes I found on Facebook from
00:07:52.520 the Conservative Party of Canada attempting to replicate what's happening in the States
00:07:59.460 and ban gender affirming care for minors. Oh, no. Banning gender affirming care for minors.
00:08:09.320 Oh, the terror does truly grip me, doesn't it? Let's take a look. With the active support of the woke far
00:08:18.820 left. Well, first of all, this is the PPC, not the Conservative Party, but whatever she's about to
00:08:24.420 read is going to sound extremely based. Again, we're just throwing around buzzwords that we don't even
00:08:30.960 know what they mean. And all establishment parties as if the left is an establishment. Okay. Radical
00:08:39.640 trans activists are trying to transform society in a way that curtails everyone's freedoms. How does me 1.00
00:08:45.680 being myself curtail your freedom? This radical agenda, which contradicts basic biological realities,
00:08:53.600 actually, please go to school past high school. Um, it's just not correct, is proving particularly
00:09:01.240 harmful to women and children. In recent years, cultural Marxists and radical activists in the
00:09:08.360 media, government, and schools have made every effort to normalize toxic transgender ideology. 1.00
00:09:15.260 Extremely true. I mean, that's just, that's just Bernier spitting facts here. Let's be honest.
00:09:20.200 Again, we're not an ideology. We're people. We exist. You can't erase us.
00:09:27.780 You can't erase us. Oh, and by the way, we want to socially transition your child behind the backs 0.99
00:09:33.380 of parents and we'll do everything we can to stop it. Oh yeah. You can't erase us.
00:09:38.900 They teach children that their gender is determined by stereotypes. And if they do not fit into the
00:09:43.280 traditional male or female gender roles, encourage them to think that they may have been in born in the
00:09:48.820 wrong body. Have you ever met a trans person, sir? We are the opposite of teaching that gender is 1.00
00:09:57.580 determined by stereotypes. We are the ones unpacking gender and realizing that gender is actually a
00:10:03.600 feeling innate to who you are. But I digress. Um, children are never born in the wrong bodies.
00:10:10.720 Children should be taught to accept themselves and not seek solutions through pharmaceuticals and
00:10:14.340 medical procedures. Hormones aren't pharmaceuticals, but okay. Um, I hate the born in the wrong body
00:10:22.340 shit that we said to cis people just to try and make them get it. It's not the wrong body. This is my 1.00
00:10:29.340 body. It just doesn't reflect my gender identity and I want it to. We're teaching children to accept 0.90
00:10:37.020 themselves, to accept who they are, which might be a trans person. The normalization of transgender
00:10:43.360 ideology, particularly amongst our youth will have a catastrophic impact on the generation if we do
00:10:48.360 not reverse course soon. That's just fear-mongering bullshit that has nothing to do with us. Again, 0.95
00:10:55.440 transgender ideology is not a thing. Transgender ideology is not a thing. You hear that guys? We can all put 0.99
00:11:01.520 our fears to rest because from this woman, man, we'll go with a thing. This thing here says that
00:11:10.700 transgender ideology is not, it does not exist. Ah, that's right. The idea that men can be women and 0.99
00:11:17.920 women can be men and that we need to, we need to, you know, explore trans. Oh, and the idea that there 0.95
00:11:23.540 are such thing as trans kids. Oh, it's not a thing. Don't worry. Don't worry about that. It's obviously 0.94
00:11:28.940 just not a thing. It's all as this thing says propaganda. Oh God. Already crying. Okay, here we
00:11:38.240 go. Ah, this is from Becky. She, they, I, I, we, we didn't have, we won't have as much issue identifying
00:11:46.220 the gender of, uh, this woman here as we did with the last, uh, person. Wayne Higgs and Bill Hogan did it.
00:11:53.380 Children under the age of 16 in New Brunswick are going to be outed to their parents if they choose
00:12:00.260 to change their pronouns in school. It happened and it went through. It's going to begin to affect
00:12:07.360 July 1st. I'm currently working my way to become a teacher. I only have two years left of school and
00:12:16.540 I'm in New Brunswick. I don't know what to do right now. I, what? Just keep studying, I guess?
00:12:30.220 Don't socially transition children behind the backs of parents and maybe don't keep secrets
00:12:35.340 from parents about a child's, uh, name and pronoun? I don't know if I want to leave this province and
00:12:44.140 go teach somewhere else because I can't out students. That's not something that I'm willing
00:12:49.800 to do. That's not something I ever pictured being a part of this job. I'm not harming students in my
00:12:55.700 own community. It's not something I'm doing. I know how dangerous this type of shit is. It would
00:13:02.700 have been dangerous for me. It's what kept me in the closet for so long. I see. It all starts to
00:13:09.940 make sense. It's about you, is it miss? Is that what it is? It's dangerous to not keep secrets
00:13:16.620 from parents about children. Uh, I think the majority of Canadians might think the opposite
00:13:22.380 of that. As a matter of fact, the majority of parents do believe it's the right thing
00:13:26.360 because a recent poll came out showing that the majority of people support this policy change in
00:13:31.720 New Brunswick. Wow, go figure. Parents want to know what's going on with their own children.
00:13:35.820 It infuriates me. I don't, I've never been so f***ing upset at my government before.
00:13:45.920 Really? You've never been more upset at your government after they make a policy like this?
00:13:51.680 Kind of weird. Or that felt less safe.
00:13:57.000 Like these children, do they need somebody as an ally? No, they don't need someone as an ally.
00:14:03.300 They need a teacher to teach them the things they need to be taught. They don't need an ally. They
00:14:08.560 don't need a, they don't need a, a spiritual coach. They don't need someone who's going to
00:14:13.540 keep a little secret between them away from their parents. They just need a teacher. Can you teach
00:14:19.200 them math? Can you teach them English? Science? How about just focusing on that? Is, is that too much
00:14:25.220 to ask for? Crying about not being able to withhold a secret from parents. Uh, just a little bit of a
00:14:32.300 red flag there if you ask me. All right, here's this guy. We've seen this guy on the show before.
00:14:37.800 Let's see what he has to say about Saskatchewan's evil policy of letting parents know what's going
00:14:43.340 on with their own children.
00:14:45.400 The Saskatchewan government has burled out three new incredibly draconian policies towards school.
00:14:51.280 Incredibly draconian policies towards school. That's draconian. Yeah, this policy is draconian,
00:14:57.860 but you know, all the stuff they did during COVID, all of the lockdowns and taking away of our
00:15:02.420 freedoms. That's not draconian, but, but this is definitely dangerous and draconian.
00:15:07.440 Each one of them is appalling and deeply, deeply problematic.
00:15:11.860 First, under the guise of parents... Problematic. Here we go. What do we got?
00:15:15.280 ...involvement of all third-party sex ed organizations from schools. This includes groups like the ARC
00:15:20.120 Foundation and Planned Parenthood. It is worth noting that sex ed in Saskatchewan is severely under-resourced.
00:15:25.080 Those organizations were coming to schools because they were requested to.
00:15:28.360 And they were requested to because the schools weren't properly equipped to teach sex ed on their own. 0.99
00:15:32.320 The second change is this.
00:15:33.980 That parents must be informed about the sex ed curriculum and that they must have the option to decline their child's participation.
00:15:39.960 Couple of things. No other curriculum is opt-in. None.
00:15:43.540 And there's probably a reason for that, don't you think?
00:15:46.160 Schools are a place to actually learn things, not a place to be indoctrinated with degeneracy.
00:15:51.020 But perhaps most appalling is this new policy. Schools must seek parent or guardian permission
00:15:56.680 when changing the preferred name and pronouns used by students under the age of 16 in schools.
00:16:00.840 That's the most appalling to this guy here. Again, what's up with these teachers, huh?
00:16:08.240 Very, very strange.
00:16:10.440 Okay, here we go. One last TikTok on Saskatchewan in particular.
00:16:14.220 The conservative Sask Party government has instituted new laws that are just written by the Minister of Education.
00:16:23.480 He just wrote them out and was like, you have to do these now.
00:16:26.220 That this school year, any child under the age of 16 who wants to go by a different name and pronouns at school,
00:16:35.760 their teachers are required to call and inform their parents.
00:16:38.280 And for any child under the age of 16, I believe, again, parents are allowed to vet the school's sex ed curriculum
00:16:49.580 and then opt their children out of it if they don't agree with what it contains.
00:16:54.180 So, I'm furious.
00:16:56.220 Oh, really? You're furious about that? Again.
00:16:59.140 Again, just a normal person. Just a normal person taking issue with parents being able to see the kind of curriculum
00:17:07.520 their children will be exposed to before giving them a chance to look at it?
00:17:13.860 But I have to get ready to go to work, so I can't do a full analysis of this right now.
00:17:17.960 Oh, that's all right. We're not concerned.
00:17:20.600 But I have posted on the government of Saskatchewan's Facebook post about it saying that this is going to lead to suicide.
00:17:28.080 Really?
00:17:29.140 It's going to lead to suicide.
00:17:31.540 Homelessness and the spread of disease.
00:17:34.080 Homelessness, suicide, and disease?
00:17:36.460 Because children under the age of 16 will have to have parental consent if they want to use a different name and pronoun at school?
00:17:44.640 To say these teachers and activists are living in a different world would be an understatement.
00:17:48.880 I think we can, frankly, use much harsher language to describe these people who really are so upset that they can't keep secrets from parents.
00:17:56.280 Their thinking is basically this.
00:17:57.540 If you don't accept the most outrageous standards set by these gender ideology cultists, then death will reign over communities. 0.98
00:18:06.560 Suicide and homelessness and disease will take over our streets because we can't keep secrets from parents any longer.
00:18:13.360 I don't know about you guys, but after watching these activists and teachers break down over a bill like this in Saskatchewan, I'm now more determined than ever to see a province like Alberta.
00:18:23.460 Canada, a province that claims to be the heart of conservatism in Canada, adopt this policy as well.
00:18:28.740 What are they doing?
00:18:29.860 And Ontario, what is Ontario doing?
00:18:31.980 Allowing this to take place in these schools?
00:18:34.640 Alright everyone, that's going to do it for us this week on the show.
00:18:36.860 Thank you so much for tuning in.
00:18:38.320 Don't expect to see Ratio next week.
00:18:40.160 I'm taking the week off to recharge.
00:18:42.820 I'll be back the following week.
00:18:44.200 My name is Harrison Faulkner and this is Ratio.
