In light of events like the Tumbler Ridge shooting, CBC Kids' editorial choices appear reckless and out of touch with child protection.
CBC Kids has repeatedly promoted gender ideology to young children through content that normalizes transgender transitions and drag performances for minors.
For years, the broadcaster has aired programs featuring child drag queens, suggesting that such activities empower kids to explore their identities. Documentaries and cartoons on CBC Kids explain gender as separate from biological sex, teaching impressionable viewers that they might be born in the wrong body.
This includes segments where children correct adults on a baby's gender based on feelings rather than physical reality.
Critics argue this amounts to ideological indoctrination, funded by taxpayers, that confuses and potentially harms vulnerable youth. Recent features have shown drag performers interacting with children in ways that make them uncomfortable while pushing trans narratives.
The promotion of puberty blockers and hormone treatments in youth-focused content raises serious concerns about encouraging irreversible medical interventions.
Parents and concerned citizens demand accountability for this pattern of behavior that prioritizes activism over neutral education.
Sign this petition now to urge the immediate shutdown of CBC Kids, and join us in delivering it to CBC headquarters to end this harmful programming.
