Hundreds of people in Regina gathered at the legislative building on Wednesday as part of nationwide protests against gender identity in schools.
A group called 1MillionMarch4Children hosted the coast-to-coast walkout, which was followed by a march.
In Regina, protesters marched from the legislative building to city hall, with several honks of support on the way. Several protestors held signs while they marched.
On their website, 1MillionMarch4Children said their walkout is not anti-2SLGBTQIA+ but rather against “gender ideology” in schools.
“If you share our belief that discussions on gender ideology should be approached at age-appropriate times, we wholeheartedly invite you to stand alongside us and amplify this message.”
In their mission statement, the group said they are “standing up to free our children from the bondage of indoctrination, breaking the system designed to sexualize our children.”
On Aug. 22, the Government of Saskatchewan announced a policy which requires parental consent before a student under 16 can change their name or pronoun at school.
