Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told angry parents protesting against child grooming that they are showing “hate” towards gay and transgender people.
“Let me make one thing very clear: Transphobia, homophobia, and biphobia have no place in this country,” Trudeau wrote Wednesday on X, in response to the parents protesting against child grooming.
“We strongly condemn this hate and its manifestations, and we stand united in support of 2SLGBTQI+ Canadians across the country — you are valid and you are valued,” the Canadian prime minister added.

Trudeau’s remarks were in response to anti-grooming protests across Canada as fed-up parents stand up against gender identity ideology being taught in schools.
One parent at the protest said:
“This is who we’re fighting for,” referring to his newborn child.
“We’re not here for hate. I don’t know why there’s a lot of talk about hate. We respect everybody, but our children, there’s a line that’s drawn on our children,” he added.

"Look how many skin colours, religions, look how many people are united. Why? Because we have one thing in common and that's our children. Nobody will ever back down from their children." pic.twitter.com/YFgcSz1iZn
He continued:
“I think ideologies should be taught at home, what the parents want, and the way that they’re forcing this, it’s not right.”
“It’s not like we had a roundtable discussion where they’re like, “Hey, what do we want in our education system?” he asked.
“No, this has been infiltrated without anybody’s consent. And now, for our own children, we want to speak out,” he continued.
“We’re creating hate? We’re creating division? I don’t think so,” the parent charged.
“Look around. Look how many skin colors, religions, look how many people are united. Why? Because we have one thing in common, and that’s our children,” the father added.
“Nobody will ever back down from their children.”
Others online were quick to highlight that the protests were diverse.
“What an incredible cross-section of our Tri-Cities community,” one wrote.
“Children to seniors, Muslims, Christians, and atheists, rich and poor. Everyone out to protect children from harmful ideologies,” the user added.

The sheer number of people here is unreal. We will get police counts soon, but it's gotta be close to 10,000 in Ottawa alone. This is happening across the country, and may just be the death blow to the Trudeau Government. The election may be a ways away, but he's done. pic.twitter.com/RLMlld6eAu

The left-wing agenda is pushing transgenderism on children, making some doubt their biological sex as more identify as non-binary.
More than one in four26 percent, of LGBTQ youth identify as nonbinary, according to research published by the Trevor Project in 2021
A further 20 percent said they are unsure whether they identify as nonbinary.
