Recently, a controversy has emerged in Canada surrounding drag queen performances in schools. Some parents and students have expressed their opposition to these performances, citing concerns about the impact on children’s values and morals. In response, a group of Canadian kids have risen up in anger against drag queen performances, sparking a debate about free expression and tolerance.
On the one hand, those opposed to drag queen performances argue that they are inappropriate for children and can promote values that are inconsistent with traditional family values. They contend that children are not capable of understanding the complex issues surrounding gender and sexuality, and that such performances can be confusing and unsettling for young children. Furthermore, they claim that drag queens are not appropriate role models for children and that their performances can be offensive and inappropriate.

One way to address this controversy is to ensure that children are provided with age-appropriate information about gender and sexuality. This can include education about the diversity of human experience, as well as the importance of respecting individual differences.
