 Homosexuals Now Hold Both Key Ontario Government Ministries: Education and Health
Although Wynne herself, a former public school trustee for Eglinton-Lawrence, has said that her status as a lesbian is not her primary focus as Education Minister, her agreement with the homosexual political agenda is complete and she has been active for years in propagating the “gay” ideology in schools under the heading of “equity.”
Given Wynne’s sympathy with homosexual identity politics, it is clear, Landoldt said, where the new Minister of Education would stand in cases involving parental rights.
Although Wynne herself claims that her lesbianism is not of the ‘in-your-face’ political variety, she told the Leaside Town Crier in 2004, "I completely support the right of lesbians and gays to marry.”
