Ontario’s modernized sex-ed curriculum may be banned in classrooms in the coming school year, but that won’t stop it from spreading on the internet.
Nadine Thornhill, a sexuality educator in Toronto, has set out to make sure the content of the curriculum is preserved for those who want to teach it.
“I’m going to be teaching so that teachers, or even parents who want to share this information at home, will have an example of how to do that and they’ll have access to all of the information,” Thornhill told CBC Toronto.
Thornhill runs a YouTube channel featuring short, educational videos focusing on child and adolescent sexuality. She wants to create a series covering the sex-ed component of the 2015 health and physical education curriculum, which the new Tory government announced it will scrap this week.
