    Totally wrong. NO. Thank you

  • Brent LAM - 6 years ago

    100% support. The program is about educate the new generation to respect others, even if they are different. Shame to those voted 'no' 800 times trying to block other people's opinion. Reality is, there are LGBT people in the society, close one's eye won't make them disappear, unless you are an ostrich. We should thanks our school for doing the job for us. It's a pilot program to make our education program better.

    I can’t believe Yes still winning. I vote No over 800 times and still lose.

  • Chelsea - 6 years ago

    I voted yes, the SOGI premise is to be inclusive of all genders and Identities and not just pander to the LGBTQ+ community. From what I read and saw of the curriculum it does not cover sex education.

    Just this poll is "yes" more than "no", but I can see other poll say "no", more than "yes".
    Actually I can feel more "no" more than "yes" in population but the media portrays this is a norm. But you have to know who is control the media, who is the one in power and in power of the media. It seems to be a social norm but most of the people doesn't feel good about SOGI. BTW, I don't even think this poll might not be statically and scientifically accurate.

    It is not about what some people wants, but to give freedom for those who wants to choose their way. No one is against the freedom of LBGTQ, but LBGTQ doesn't want to give a way to those doesn't feel like that way. Honestly, isn't it the same as so call what we heard in some 3rd world country with a certain belief?

    I voted yes because children need to learn that stereotypes and prejudice are wrong and it is wrong to discriminate or make fun of others because they are different.

    I changed my mind... I read the sogi website and now I do support sogi.

    Mark 12:31 "The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

  • Daniel Taylor - 6 years ago

    I absolutely do SUPPORT SOGI !!!

  • Anna Marie Ricketts - 6 years ago

    I voted YES.
    A lot of people are confused on what SOGI is and what it is not. From the SOGI website: "SOGI in the curriculum is NOT about students developing a particular set of beliefs around sexual orientation and gender identity. It is about building understanding of the diverse society that we live in and learning to treat each other with dignity and respect regardless of our differences."

  • BC Resident Ronnie - 6 years ago

    I support SOGI because my children, ALL children, need to be educated that there are people in our society who may be different than themselves, but still deserve our respect, tolerance, and acceptance. In the past, our society has dealt with (and still deals with) bigotry against racial minorities (including asians, blacks, hispanics). This bigotry now affects other minorities, including those who identify with a different gender than assigned at birth, sexual orientation, or others. Stop the bigotry in the classroom by educating children that they should love and accept our neighbours. Vote Yes for SOGI.

    Teaching kids sexual orientation is always a part of family education. Just like potty training, moms always trained you well then were able to get you in daycare. Let’s just keep it natural. If we need a restriction on that, train the rational adults so-called parents first, not kids.

  • Anna - 6 years ago

    My only wish is that the wider community could experience this education. But at least through teaching these basic concepts to children, there is hope for the next generation of adults.

  • Kathy - 6 years ago

    Sogi has only survived because we, as parents, do not have the time and are not taking the time to really look into where and how this (Sogi)
    so insidiously threaded itself through our school curriculums. Life is very basic...male, female, boy, girl, father, mother...this has been a truth since the beginning of time. It cannot be changed just because of indoctrination in the schools. The TRUTH cannot be changed...no matter what. This is a separate group of sexual activists that has started all of this and we need to push back.

    I feel teaching young people about money money works and planning for the future is much more important than something that nature has given us. So many think they know, but end up broke. There is a place and time for everything.

  • Anna - 6 years ago

    Jesus preached forgiveness and love. Everyone deserves to feel safe. There is no harm in educating children about the different people they will encounter in their lives.

  • Alisha - 6 years ago

    As a perfectly straight girl, I was 'outed' at school and I felt hurt. I had suicidal thoughts notsure if partially due to others' rejection. Do I blame others for not including me in their circles? People dislike people for various reason. Different sexual orientation is just one possible reason.

    What we need to teach our kids is we can all live a life without approval from other human beings. We respect those who don't like us and we are responsible for our own choices.

    At least that was how I myself got truly healed.

  • Shawn Standley - 6 years ago

    How can people oppose this? This is a common topic of discussion in our home. I have many homosexual friends and it is important to me my children understand love is about the person. Before I get labelled a “Liberal” I want to point out I am a conservative military veteran who put the uniform on and went to war twice to represent Canadian values of freedom, acceptance and tolerance. If you are afraid of this topic, ask yourself why.

  • Rhonda - 6 years ago

    Dare you call this thing love. This is not love. This is the hatred against male and female. This is hatred against human being. This is a crime against children.

  • Ben - 6 years ago

    We live in 2018, not in 1950 !!!

    We hope the year 2018 give us permission to tell people that a rotten apple is now a good apple? Can we?

    Can we hope the year 2018 give us permission that children can watch pornography?

    Does 2018 change the biological laws so that we can tell a mentally ill patient that he is perfectly healthy and he does not need healing?

    "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Gal. 6:7 I will stand on the word of God and His purposes and fight against the powers of darkness til He takes me home.

  • Gerda Peachey - 6 years ago

    Strident, militant activists are determined to wrest children away from the protection and love of their family.

    But behind the drive to inject confusion that can rob kids of common sense and meaningful lives is the enemy of all mankind. He knows his time to wreak havoc will end, but until then Satan seeks to destroy humanity, created in the image of God.

    I have always loved horses, dogs, creeks, woodlands and rocks. I would have been a prime candidate for dangerous sexual revisionists. Thank God they would never have been tolerated in public schools, when I was young and vulnerable to adults bent on my ruin.

    I support educating our youth and teaching love and acceptance for diversity for ALL diverse groups. I do not support teaching young children to be confused or that they should take hormone replacement therapy at 10 years old. I’ve seen the confusion seed planted first hand in a 6 year old boy. His parents handled it beautifully, but it was planted by the SOGI program nonetheless.

    Create a committee that represents all minority and majority groups alike and then develop an educational program for diversity, acceptance and love. Not a one sided agenda focused panel of individuals that only represent one group of minorities. Set an example of everyone working together. Find better ways to address the issues instead of one-sided bias yet again.

  • Jessica - 6 years ago

    This is a great country but with wrong decision makers!! God bless Canada ????????! God bless all kids and youth!

  • Sunfire - 6 years ago

    This program takes away all of the parents rights to raise their own children. People can be or believe whatever they want but don’t enforce it on the ones who don’t agree. This program is being brought into the kindergarten and elementary class rooms. I’m sorry but a 5 year old child should not have to decide if he wants to be a boy or a girl. How confusing for those young children. Leave our families alone. We are not a totalitarianism state. Where the government dictates our every move. We have the right to choose. Governments should do what they are voted into do- run the country. Maybe if they concentrate on that instead of sticking their noses where they don’t belong, we wouldn’t be in the mess that we are in now.

  • jessica - 6 years ago

    What is this trying to do? manipulate young kids and turning the whole world to like those minors? sounds the end of the world....

  • bruce - 6 years ago

    I will never allow my kids being manipulated by this type of wrong directional “education”. To respect different is one thing, distort and misleading kids is not tolerant!

  • Paul - 6 years ago

    Is this the way Canada deal with multiculture? USA is focusing on changing world and Canadian is focusing on changing gender. Canada has been going far on the wrong direction. LOL

  • lisasteven - 6 years ago

    I am strongly against the program. For one thing, it is too early for children to receive this kind of sexual education. Because their body and mind are still developing.For another, sexual education should not be made use of by minors, in which case ,it will become another thing. I hope schools can educate children more reasonable skills and.manners.

  • Pamala - 6 years ago

    SOGI is about respecting all people - whether we agree with them or not. Students are going to encounter non-CIS gender, non-heterosexuals, pretending they don't exist isn't helping anyone. Everyone has the right to live their live as they see fit and they have the right to do it in peace - free from hatred, free from disrespect and free from "tolerance". Make no mistake, there is a world of difference between "tolerance" and inclusion and that's what SOGI is about, including all students regardless of how they identify. There are things in the curriculum I don't agree with, I tell my kids my version at home and then tell them to make up their own minds on the matter. What we've done up to now has some children living in fear of how they feel about themselves, has them committing suicide, self-harming, doing drugs and generally becoming a drain on society instead of becoming happy, productive members of society. Wouldn't it be better to have all children happy and learning at school instead of worried about being "outed". There isn't an epidemic of LGBTQ youth, rather LGBTQ youth are learning they don't have to be afraid anymore, they can finally be themselves.
