So there is another thing.
This whole thing sounds like more of an urban myth on the Right than an actual, real thing.
I am actually with King on this one… but not for his biased reasoning. I think buddy is trolling. He went all in. If he stops now he’s a joke and he’s fired. (I absolutely could be wrong here… but I’m not)
My best friend has a Transgender kid. I will be honest… I was extremely uncomfortable at first… but it does not even phase me now.
That's why I'm asking.
That Jordan Peterson is all in on it is a reason to be very suspicious.
Bitch is standing right next to a chop saw. Problem easily solved.if there's a dress code for the students there should be one for the teachers. The school just doesn't want to be sued by the Trans teacher.
Public pressure hasn’t made the Halton District School Board change its policy regarding a teacher wearing huge fake breasts to class, but perhaps legal action will.
A group of parents has hired a lawyer to push the board to take action on the dress and deportment of teacher Kayla Lemieux.
Rishi Banhu, a labour law specialist from Oakville, has written to both the board and Education Minister Stephen Lecce asking for action.
“The board has refused to enforce any standards or expectations with regard to Ms. Lemieux’s work attire,” Bandhu wrote.
His letter goes on to demand the board explain their position on the lack of a dress code for teachers when Lemieux’s style of dress clearly violates the student dress code. He also demands the board engage with parents and the school council at Oakville Trafalgar High School on this matter.
“My clients reserve their rights to pursue all forms of legal action concerning this matter, including judicial review,” he wrote.
A group of parents calling themselves Students First Ontario is raising money to support legal action against the board. So far, they have raised just over $7,500 of their $10,000 goal.
Bandhu though is looking to the province to step in and solve the matter. In his letter to Lecce, Bandhu asks him to exercise his authority under Section 303(2) of the Education Act, which would allow the minister to impose a dress code.
“A board shall direct a principal to establish a local code of conduct if the board is required to do so by the Minister, and the local code must address such matters and include such requirements as the Minister may specify,” the act reads.
Lecce has been pushing the board to take action since the story broke in September. He referred the issue of professional standards to the Ontario College of Teachers, which ruled that the board had all the powers they needed to enforce a dress code similar to the one students must follow — but the board has refused to do so.
“I think the bottom line and our position is that when kids are in front of staff, we expect them to uphold the highest standards of professionalism,” Lecce said Monday.
He specifically said he doesn’t think the board has acted appropriately in this case and called on them to do so.
Despite public pressure, pressure from ministry bureaucrats and direct pressure from the minister himself, the board has not moved. Their claim is that imposing a dress code on teachers, Lemieux in particular, would be a violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code.
Kjerstin Karlsson, a post-op transwoman, wrote after a column earlier this week to say that Lemieux’s conduct is inappropriate for a school.
“This teacher is making it more difficult than ever, even if she doesn’t realize it, for trans individuals to live their lives and be respected,” Karlsson said, noting Lemieux’s conduct could be having a negative impact on trans students as well.
“Human rights only go so far, if she wants to wear prosthetic breasts that large may I suggest a nightclub and not a learning institution.”
That is a common sense and respectful view, which can’t be said for Lemieux’s choices or the Halton school board’s acceptance of them.
If the board hasn’t acted up until this point, it’s doubtful they will change course in the face of legal action. If the education act allows Lecce to order the board to establish a dress code, he should do it.
This ordeal has become a distraction for students, parents and teachers.

Too funny and there are Libs think that the story is not real despite the pictures and many articles. A right wing conspiracy !!!!!
I don’t support what this person is doing. I think it is probably a right wing man making some sorta political stand against trans rights by making them look absurd. I think she should be fired for her clownish appearance but apparently the board will get sued if they do so.Too funny and there are Libs think that the story is not real despite the pictures and many articles.

It bothers me that such an obvious abuse of basic etiquette is allowed to exist but I don’t wish this person dead FFS. As I said earlier, I don’t think this person is harming the students in any way other than looking ridiculous.
I find it to be a weird kinda reaction from people on the Right who simultaneously are cheerleading this brilliant trolling of the Libs while simultaneously wishing her a painful death with a “chop” (shop?) saw?
Frankly, I think this is a right wing guy who feels he is being persecuted by the school board for some reason and has decided that he is gonna make his stand against tyranny on this issue. Anyone who would go to these lengths to make a point probably has a screw loose and should not be allowed to teach kids…or go skydiving with her giant prosthetic breasts either…but none of this is illegal I suppose.
Oakville teacher famous for huge prosthetic breasts went skydiving with a porn star
A skydiving video is circulating this week of someone believed to be Kayla Lemieux, the Oakville Trafalgar High School shop teacher who rose to fam...
So its really a right wing man conspiring to make the trans people look bad? He's being persecuted by the school board so he decided to put on giant prosthetics?

Yup
Yes they will stay the same. I know it's hard for people to understand reality but sexual characteristics are determined by way more than one gene and some of them conflict with each other. The vast majority of people will have only male or female but there are more than enough genetic variations for people to have otherwise mismatched alleles.
Then pathetic that you think people have the right to deny service to people. Would you be okay with someone banning those Muslim barbers from their workplace?
All winning athletes win to a large extent because of their genetic advantages. Sports has always been okay with it in men's sports. The Caster Semenya debacle is stupid though as a guy with higher than average testosterone can become a champ while a woman with higher than average gets banned.
If this is the case, the board refusing to act is the best punishment making the guy prolong his act indefinitely.
Yes, there have been numerous unofficial claims that this guy has a disciplinary record for misogynistic behaviour in class. Makes more sense than an actual trans person choosing the most outlandish prosthetics. Add in the whole sky diving stunt of skipping work and blasting social media with what they were doing fits extremely well with someone trying to challenge their employer.

Trans people don't "freak me out". I believe they needed to be treated or at the very least, examined thoroughly for mental healthy issues. There are some studies (that I don't know the numbers) that show a large number regret their transition and or choices.
I think your strawman response is pathetic; you are completely missing the crux of the matter, Basketcase. We are not talking about banning Muslims from the workplace because they are Muslims.
There are a number of human rights auditors that are game for causing issues for people/establishments. Much like the ever idiotic Sovereign Citizens who YouTube and audit police; normally, the end result is them getting arrested.
