I heard a rumour from one of my buddies today that the NDP wants schools to start using the word "caregivers" instead of "parents" because "parents" implies a male and a female and it excludes the LGBT community...
Has anyone else heard this? When he told me this I couldn't believe it, so I had to look it up and couldn't find anything about it. It seems pretty ridiculous so I wouldn't be surprised at all if he read a joke article or misinterpreted something (possibly about the washroom/changeroom issues), but I figured I'd ask to see if anyone else heard about this before I start making assumptions. Thanks and sorry for the slight derail!
