    A national movement, called “1Million4Children March,” announced their intentions to peacefully protest against the push for LGBT ideology in schools. The Corner Brook Bay of Islands Pride were there to voice their side.

    Upwards of a hundred people showed up at Corner Brook city hall for a protest-counter protest this morning. A national movement, called “1Million4Children March,” announced their intentions to peacefully protest against the push for LGBT ideology in schools. Many parents kept their children out of some schools in the country to avoid the situation. Members of the Corner Brook-Bay of Islands Pride and supporters showed up around 8:30. Josh Connors says they received a lot of support for safe spaces in schools for children who  may have questions. That’s when a man named Motty joined in on the conversation… He asked about people ganging up on a small 5-8 year old child which could lead to mutilation. The discussion continued and ended with a chant, No Space for Hate. RNC were on site but the protest-counter protest ended peacefully.
