Muslim Families React
TORONTO, July 18 (LSN.ca) - Ibrahim El-Sayed, President of the Toronto District Muslim Education Assembly has warned that beginning this Fall, Toronto District School Board (TDSB) will formally enact its "Human Sexuality Program." The program includes counselling to encourage students in homosexuality and indoctrination of students, teachers and parents via presentations against "heterosexism and homophobia." The Muslim community feels "very strongly that the TDSB has gone too far by formally promoting and imposing an anti-faith, anti-family, immoral and corrupt curriculum on us" said El-Sayed.
El-Sayed noted that the TDSB shunned his group and would not address their concerns saying they were a "faith" group. The group's concerns were also dismissed by Ontario Education Minister Janet Ecker who wrote the group June 29 saying that "The education provided by Ontario's public schools must be secular", thus barring accommodation to faith. Interestingly, LifeSite reported in June that David Small, a homosexual activist, is mentioned in NOW magazine as an advisor to Minister Ecker.
The official policy of the TDSB on homosexuality is totally in sync with the new program, however. In their list of Equity Implementation Documents, the board lists a section on "Antihomophobia, Sexual Orientation And Equity." The Curriculum sub-section notes that "The Board is further committed to providing each student with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviours needed to live in a complex and diverse world by: ensuring that the principles and practices of antihomophobia and equity on the basis of sexual orientation permeate the curriculum in all subject areas (and) examining and challenging homophobic and heterosexist curriculum in order to ensure inclusivity."
