Do I have a right to request a 2SLGBTQI+ affirming group or school activity?
As a student in any school in Ontario you have a right to initiate a group, or other school activity that focuses on diversity in attraction, gender identity or gender expression consistent with the promotion of a positive school climate that is inclusive and accepting of all students. This includes the right to create and have a Gender and Sexuality Alliance (GSA) group in school. They may also be known as Queer-Straight Alliance, Pride Alliance, or other name that your group chooses.
Does this apply to Catholic schools?
Yes. This applies to Catholic schools and Catholic school boards, as both systems are publicly funded in Ontario.
