this is why ford will win the primary.

it's also also why he'll lose the general.

the tories have already lost this election. but, their coalition requires those socially conservative middle-class immigrant voters. the demographics in ontario are such that you simply can't win with the typical white conservative demographics. they have to reach out. and this is really all they've got for them, at this level of government.

and, what it's about is teaching that homosexuality is normal; the parents don't want their kids taught that homosexuality is natural, as it contradicts their religious beliefs. the rest of it is trivial. this is pure anti-queer bigotry masquerading as "religious freedom".

i would actually argue that, the more that parents push back against science in the name of upholding religion, the more important it is to ensure that their kids are given exposure to the science, to unbrainwash them.

i have absolutely no patience and absolutely no sympathy for these parents. the harder they push, the harder society should push back. for the sake of democracy, it's imperative that their kids are educated, and not left to languish in ignorance, where they can perpetuate their hate to the next generation.
