(LifeSiteNews) — The Ontario Labour Relations Board declared that the case of Ontario teachers fired for refusing to bow to LGBT demands will proceed.
According to a September 8 press release by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), the Ontario Labour Relations Board (OLRB) is determined to hear legal arguments from Matt and Nicole Alexander, who were fired from the Renfrew County District School Board for refusing to push the LGBT agenda to students.
“We are pleased that the Board has rejected the attempt to shut this case down at the preliminary stage,” Constitutional lawyer Darren Leung said. “The Alexanders deserve the opportunity to have their concerns fully heard, and today’s decision ensures that will happen.”
The Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario and the Renfrew County District School Board had petitioned the court to dismiss the Alexander’s case. However, the appeal was dismissed by the OLRB.
Alexander, along with his wife Nicole, were fired from their teaching positions in Ontario for refusing to “celebrate and affirm” LGBT ideology in the classroom in 2023.
“What we’re seeing is a culture where if you don’t actively affirm certain views, you’re at risk,” Matt Alexander explained.
Targeting of the couple began after their son, Josh Alexander, publicly opposed his school’s policy allowing male students to use girls’ bathrooms, leading to his suspension and arrest.
Matt was suspended in April 2023 after social media complaints linked to his son’s advocacy, despite not having a social media presence himself. Nicole was suspended for removing a “pride” flag from her classroom door, placed there without her consent.
By September 2023, the school board demanded compliance with their policies, which the Alexanders refused, leading to their termination.
The family faced severe financial strain, selling their home to avoid foreclosure. They are now pursuing legal action through the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, filing a human rights complaint against the school board for religious discrimination and another against their union for failing to defend their rights.
Since his dismissal, Matt has become an outspoken voice for parents and children targeted by LGBT activists in schools. Matt recently spoke at a pro-family gathering in Pembroke, Ontario, during which he exposed the public school system’s relentless promotion of the LGBT agenda.
“What happens in schools stays in schools,” he warned. “Your children will not come home and tell you what’s happening. Parents must ask questions – demand answers – because indoctrination is happening behind closed doors.”
