Toronto Catholic School Board Staff Attend City’s Grotesque ‘Pride’ Parade

TORONTO (LifeSiteNews) –– Members of the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) attended the city’s LGBT “Pride” parade this past weekend, ostensibly celebrating sin directly condemned by the Church.
According to an X post by the Toronto Elementary Catholic Teachers (TECT) labor union, on June 30, at least one TCDSB trustee and other members of staff marched in the city’s LGBT “Pride Parade,” an event which saw fully naked men in close proximity to children.

Among the TCDSB staff who attended the march were board trustee Kevin Morrison and superintendent of education, indigenous education, equity, and community relations, Roy Fernandes.
As reported by LifeSiteNews, the parade featured fully nude adult men walking down the street and stopping by a fence where children were present.
Additionally, a man in a thong, leather corset and platform heels leading the floats approached a group of small children who were watching the spectacle unfold from the sidelines.
The TCDSB’s decision to walk in the parade came after pro-life and pro-family organization Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) called on the nominally Catholic institution to ban staff from attending the perverted event.
“This is a scandal of biblical proportions,” CLC’s Jack Fonseca told LifeSiteNews.
“It’s hard to believe that a religious institution – the TCDSB – which was created to imbue the next generation with belief in all the teachings of the Catholic faith, is now advocating for sodomy instead of Jesus Christ,” he declared.
“They are literally marching in the streets to celebrate sodomy and transvestitism, two of the grave sins condemned by Sacred Scripture and Catholic doctrine!” Fonseca continued.
Recently, the TCDSB has become notorious for its promotion of the LGBT agenda while claiming to be a Catholic institution.
In April, the TCDSB voted against a motion seeking to have pro-life flags flown on top of all district buildings in the month of May. The same board in 2021 voted in favor of flying the gay “pride” flag atop its schools.
Similarly, last November, the TCDSB invited pro-LGBT Fr. James Martin, SJ, to address staff and faculty on welcoming so-called “2SLGBTQ+ students.”
The nominally Catholic association’s statements are in seeming contradiction to Catholic doctrine. The Catechism of the Catholic Church clearly states that God created humans “male and female” and that “[e]veryone, man and woman, should acknowledge and accept his sexual identity.”
“Physical, moral, and spiritual difference and complementarity are oriented toward the goods of marriage and the flourishing of family life. the harmony of the couple and of society depends in part on the way in which the complementarity, needs, and mutual support between the sexes are lived out,” the Catechism continues.
The Catechism further declares that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered” and “under no circumstances can they be approved.”
LifeSiteNews reached out to the Archdiocese of Toronto to ask if it was aware that members of the TCDSB attended the march and if the archdiocese would be issuing a statement condemning Catholic groups which attended the march. The archdiocese did not respond by time of publication.
Fonseca called out Archbishop Francis Leo for not condemning the TCDSB for promoting and celebrating sin while carrying the name “Catholic.”
“His Excellency needs to start opening his mouth,” Fonseca declared. “As the bishop responsible for all Catholic schools in the Diocese of Toronto, he has a duty under Canon 804.1 and 804.2 to ensure that TCDSB schools are faithfully Catholic.”
“In fact, I believe that Archbishop Leo now has an urgent obligation under Canon 803.3 to strip the TCDSB of the name ‘Catholic’ and to ban it from using that name at any of its schools, offices, verbal or written communications,” he continued.

Rise in Stolen Singaporean ID Data Shows The Dangers of Digital ID
A recent advisory published by the Resecurity cybersecurity vendor exposes a trend now developing on the dark web – more and more stolen biometrics-based data is ending up in this corner of the internet.
These revelations, describing the increase in activity of this type as “significant,” highlight the case of Singapore, including its SingPass scheme.
At the same time, they confirm that the fears of the digital ID and age verification push sooner or later turning into a privacy nightmare.
In Singapore, every citizen and resident has a SingPass (Singapore Personal Access) digital ID account, which is touted by the authorities in the city-state as their “trusted digital identity” – not to mention a “convenient” one.
Blackhat hackers, however, beg to disagree, and it’s hard to imagine that digital ID holders affected by identity theft think of the scheme as in any way “convenient.”
Security researchers say that overall, year-on-year, as many as 230 percent more “vendors” are now selling stolen personal information that often contains facial recognition data, fingerprints, and other biometrics belonging to Singaporeans.
A majority of this data has been up for sale on the XSS dark web forum, according to the same source.
In 2024 thus far, this type of activity peaked in April, following a rise in data breaches where cybercriminals targeted a number of online databases that store this information.
Stolen citizens’ identities are then used for a variety of criminal activities, including fraud, scams, and the creation of deepfakes. But once this kind of floodgate opens, exposing particularly sensitive data, spies and various governments are never far behind the common criminals in exploiting the breaches.
Other than supposedly being “easy and secure,” SingPass gives access to more than 1,700 government and private sector services in Singapore, both online, and in person.
But Resecurity said that more than 2,377 of these accounts were compromised last month alone, with the firm saying the holders of those have been notified of this discovery.
However, the firm’s advisory noted that in many cases online platforms that suffer data breaches do not disclose these incidents, which means that citizens and residents in Singapore whose identities have been stolen are not even aware of this.
Demented Octogenarian, or Liar? Biden Humiliates Himself Again & Again as Whole World Watches
(LifeSiteNews) — President Joe Biden sat for a video interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos in an attempt to salvage his campaign following his disastrous performance in last week’s debate with former President Donald Trump, but failed to achieve his goal as he doubled down on an array of self-delusions and outright lies.
The ABC interview was broadcast one day after Biden had inexplicably declared in an interview with Philadelphia radio station WURD: “I’m proud to be… the first vice president, first black woman… to serve with a black president.”
Commenting after the ABC interview, in-house political journalist Jonathan Karl told Stephanopoulos, “There is nothing in this interview that is calming [the] nerves of jittery Democrats who fear that Joe Biden is on a trajectory to lose this race to Donald Trump.”
“For some, the interview is raising new concerns,” said Karl, “particularly the fact that he’s unwilling or unaware of the fact that he is in a dire situation regarding the campaign.”

Biden’s apparent unsubstantiated optimism and willingness to overlook – if not outright dismiss – polls is due to his keeping counsel with only a very tight White House inner circle, explained ABC’s Martha Raddatz, who noted that Jill Biden is “lashing out at those who want him to get out of the race.”
In perhaps his most jaw-dropping, easily disputable comment, Biden compared the size and the energy of the crowds attending his campaign stops to those of Trump.
“How many people draw crowds like I did today?” Biden asked. “Find me more enthusiastic than today? Huh?”
Photos and videos tell a completely different story.
Stephanopoulos, attempting to steer Biden away from a head-on collision with truth, cautioned him, “I don’t think you wanna play the crowd game. Donald Trump can draw big crowds.”
During the interview, Biden repeatedly called Trump a “pathological liar” while succumbing to his own pathological compulsion to lie.
CNN felt obligated to fact-check some of Biden’s more egregious oft-repeated falsities.
Biden had told Stephanopoulos that Trump “is a guy who told us to put bleach in our arms to deal with COVID.” CNN admitted that “Biden’s claim is misleading,” and that Trump had never said that.
CNN also zeroed in on Biden’s claim that Trump was the only president other than Herbert Hoover “who lost more jobs than he created,” pointing out that Biden left out some important context.
“There was a gain of about 6.7 million jobs until the COVID-19 pandemic hit the country about three years into that term,” wrote CNN, however, “Nearly 22 million jobs were lost under Trump in March 2020 and April 2020 when the global economy cratered on account of the pandemic.”
“The U.S. then started regaining jobs immediately, adding more than 12 million from May 2020 through December 2020, but not enough to make up the massive early-pandemic losses.”
Biden’s endless assertions that the Trump presidency was a disaster for the U.S. economy has always been a lie.
Twice during the interview, Biden said “if the Lord Almighty came down and said, ‘Joe, get outta the race,’ I’d get outta the race.”
Biden’s claim is highly suspect since he clearly hasn’t listened to what “the Lord Almighty” has undoubtedly attempted to explain to him about sanctioning and promoting abortion, mutilating the genitals of minors in the name transgenderism, same-sex marriage, and a host of other topics about which God is unmistakably clear.
The voice of his wife, Jill, is likely the oracle through which Joe Biden believes he hears God speak to him.
“From the crisis he created at the U.S.-Mexico border to manufactured hoaxes about his opponent, there was almost no subject Biden didn’t lie about,” wrote The Federalist’s Shawn Fleetwood the following day.
Fleetwood then listed the “20 biggest whoppers” Biden told during his debate with Trump. Among them:
- Illegal Border Crossings: Biden claimed “there [are] 40 percent fewer people coming across the border illegally” under his presidency than Trump’s. That isn’t true, as illegal border crossings have skyrocketed to record highs under Biden’s presidency.
- Military Deaths: Biden claimed he’s the “only president this… decade” who “doesn’t have any troops dying anywhere in the world” under his presidency. That is false. Thirteen service members were killed during Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
- Late Term Abortion: Biden claimed that Democrats “are not for late-term abortion.” As The Federalist’s Jordan Boyd noted, Biden “has repeatedly promised to legalize unlimited, on-demand abortion through all nine months of pregnancy via a sweeping bill and routinely promotedtaxpayer-funded abortion policies.”
- Roe v. Wade: Biden claimed the “vast majority of constitutional scholars supported [Roe v. Wade] when it was decided” by the Supreme Court in 1973. There is no evidence that’s true.
- The ‘Very Fine People’ lie: Biden repeated the lie that Trump called white supremacists who participated in a 2017 Charlottesville march “very fine people.” Even left-wing “fact-checker” Snopes recently admitted that claim is untrue.

Biden Campaign Urged to Use AI to Make Senile President Appear More Competent – While Labeling Real Videos Showing His Cognitive Decline ‘Deepfakes’
We seem to be living in an upside-down world, where artifice is presented as reality and truths are dismissed as frauds. Nowhere is that more evident right now than in the way that Biden supporters are trying to trick Americans into thinking that the geriatric president actually belongs in the White House rather than a memory care facility.
It wasn’t long ago that the Biden campaign started pushing social media platforms to suppress videos showcasing his very real cognitive decline. They were apparently hoping they could keep these videos from surfacing in people’s feeds the same way they silenced those who dared to speak out about vaccine dangers during the pandemic. And if that didn’t work, they had another trick up their sleeves: labeling videos of some of his more glaring gaffes as “deepfakes” despite being legitimate news footage. This was on full display when they tried to dismiss actual footage of him acting confused at the G7 summit in Italy, a D-Day commemoration in France and many of the other occasions when he just couldn’t keep his act together as being digitally altered.
Now, as the pressure piles on in the wake of his deeply unsettling debate performance, Biden’s supporters now appear to be shifting from calling real videos fake ones to creating fake videos out of real coverage that make him seem a lot sharper than he is.
On Wednesday, the pro-Biden Huffington Post published an article calling on Biden’s camp to take advantage of artificial intelligence technology to create fake videos in which he looks and sounds like a healthy human being whose brain in functioning in a perfectly normal way.
Quoting Biden’s admission following the debate that he “might not walk as easily or talk as smoothly I used to,” they suggested that he get help from AI with this problem. The author of the piece, Democratic commentator and nonprofit advisor Kaivan Shroff, warned ominously that “the consequences of not taking this approach could be dire.”
Since Biden often struggles to put words together in a way that makes sense, he pointed out that “AI augmentations and video renderings could serve to smooth out these bumps while allowing the Biden campaign to effectively disseminate true information.”
Tricking Americans is perfectly ethical if it keeps the “right” candidate in office, advisor claims
The irony of his own words appears to be completely lost on him when he goes on to say that these fake videos could actually help stem misinformation.
“In a world where misinformation and disinformation spreads virally, often through short-form video content, having the capability to produce polished, articulate responses in real-time could be a game-changer,” he wrote, somehow deciding that a perfectly reasonable way to convince Americans that footage of Biden being confused is fake is by generating an AI version of the president telling them so.
He goes on to say that although there are ethical concerns about AI renderings of the president, the possibility of Trump winning the election is so dire that deceiving people is somehow acceptable if it will get the “right” candidate in office.
“It is incumbent upon the Biden campaign to use every tool available to make sure the president’s reelection bid is successful,” he stated, and it wouldn’t be surprising if his definition of “every tool” (and that of many liberals) extends beyond AI to include ballot stuffing, absentee ballot fraud and social media censorship. In their minds, it’s perfectly okay – and perhaps even noble – to bend the law, put ethics aside and deceive the public to ensure Biden retains power.
Advertiser Alliance Members are Called to Testify After Allegations of Efforts to ‘Demonetize & Censor Disfavored Viewpoints’
The Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) is back in the headlines big time – what with the recent decision of X to rejoin the group, and now, as anticipated, the US Congress is stepping up its attempts to shed more light on what GARM actually does, censorship-wise.
Once again it is House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan who is trying to hold Big Tech – and in this case, “the advertising industrial complex” as it were – accountable.
GARM is a World Economic Forum (WEF)-affiliated initiative, launched by the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA); the latter by its own admission represents more than 150 biggest brands and over 60 advertiser associations around the world.
“Brand safety” is what the group says it is offering to these clients. But Jordan, and many conservatives and media outlets and businesses – allied or perceived to be allied with them – have strong suspicions that GARM can and is being used as yet another avenue of censorship and suppression – this time via actions that result in demonetization or boycott of those who hold “disfavored views.”
Concerning GARM, Jordan started fighting what supporters must see as “the good fight” last year (first by requesting information and then by issuing a subpoena once that was ignored).
Then, this March, the Committee sent letters to five members of the GARM Steering Team including Unilever and GroupM (a media investment group) asking for access to documents and communications that might prove the overall anti-conservative bias executed by the imitative.
We obtained a copy of the letter for you here.
Jordan was not in the mood to sugarcoat the issue, as he sees it: “This coordination does not always revolve around ‘brand safety’ and ‘harmful’ content as GARM publicly claims, but instead the desire to censor conservative and other views that GARM members disfavor,” he wrote, adding that this results in content creators losing revenue, in a way that may be illegal and collusive under the Sherman (antitrust) Act.
In late June, Jordan wrote to Unilever again, and the inclusion of GroupM is pertinent given that the March letter mentioned several leading conservative media outlets as alleged targets of this conduct.
The letter is asking top representatives of the two corporations to publicly testify regarding the Committee’s misgivings around their activities.
According to a Committee spokesman’s comments made in March, “everything is on the table” in case of non-compliance with this series of requests – including more subpoenas, and congressional hearings.
