(LifeSiteNews) — Canada’s top pro-life group has raised the importance and urgency of having provincial governments pass and enact parental consent laws in the face of LGBT indoctrination in schools, saying doing so will in fact “save lives” of kids because it will allow “mom and dad” to do the parenting instead of “woke teachers.”
“Enshrining parental consent laws saves lives because it ensures that those who love children the most – mom and dad – will be able to provide critical, loving guidance to them,” Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) Director of Political Operations Jack Fonseca told LifeSiteNews.
Fonseca raised the importance of having both “mom and dad” be the primary teachers of their kids.
“When mom and dad are allowed to do the parenting instead of woke teachers, children can be steered away from this poisonous ideology,” he told LifeSiteNews.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, LGBT indoctrination targeting kids has been on the rise in Canada and worldwide, which has led to Canadians fighting back in protest.
Some provinces, such as Alberta, New Brunswick, and Saskatchewan, have in recent months proposed legislation that would strengthen parental rights.
Some provincial governments will soon be introducing legislation aimed at strengthening parental rights as well as limiting minors being able to undergo “gender reassignment” surgery.
Earlier this year, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced strong pro-family legislation that strengthens parental rights, protecting kids from life-altering, so-called “top and bottom” surgeries as well as other forms of transgender ideology. Also, she has promised to introduce legislation this fall that will affirm parents’ “God-given” authority over their children.
Fonseca noted that the “poisonous ideology” oftentimes leads to “chemical castration and the surgeon’s knife for many.”
“Gender ideology being pushed in schools is producing sexual confusion in the minds of the young, and leading many down the path of puberty blockers, sterilizing hormones, and for some later in life, the surgical amputation of perfectly healthy body parts,” he told LifeSiteNews.
Fonseca noted that so-called “gender reassignment surgery” is associated with a “19-fold higher rate of suicide according to a powerful Swedish government study on the health outcomes of post-operative [self-professed] transsexuals.”
“Our parental rights advocacy campaign is important,” he added.
CLC has been at the forefront of pushing back against the LGBT indoctrination being pushed in many of Canada’s schools. One way they have countered the agenda is through local initiatives, such as flyer campaigns, however, these have been met with resistance.
LifeSiteNews recently reported how CLC was pleased that Canada Post followed through to deliver some of its flyers in the wake of two Canada Post employees’ recent suspensions for refusing to deliver materials that called out “sex changes” for minors.
