Cindy Watson
Waterloo Region District School Board - ON
Electoral District: Cambridge/North Dumfries
Bio
At a WRDSB Trustee Board Meeting on January 17, 2022, Trustee Watson rightly voted to hear a delegation presentation by a courageous teacher who was drawing attention to inappropriate children's books in the school library which presented very real potential harms to young children. The presentation had been interrupted by the pro-LGBT Board Chairman because it dared to question the age-appropriateness of these books that were promoting transgender and LGBT ideology, including sex change surgery, to impressionable children as young as 8 years of age.

Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision | Vote | Score |
---|---|---|
Position on the right of parents to withdraw kids from classroom lessons that parents view as morally inappropriate or controversial. | Supports | |
Sex-Ed curriculum: Motions to protect parental rights in education against the Wynne government's sex-ed over-reach. Trustees from various school boards made motions to curtail the Wynne government's imposition of its graphic sex-ed curriculum. The curriculum infringes on parental rights in education by forcing children at very young ages to be exposed to LGBTQ ideology, unhealthy sexual practices, and disordered gender concepts. Motions include those to delay implementation of the sex-ed curriculum to allow time for meaningful parental consultation, as well as a more detailed evaluation of the inadequate and evasive government-run consultation process. |
Supported | |
Support for in-school child-sexualization tactics that use perverse books / materials aimed at young children Vote or statement in support of school-based child-sexualization via the use of perverse books and other "educational" materials aimed at polluting the imaginations of young, impressionable children. Such materials typically promote premature sexual fascination, experimentation, homoerotic fixations, and transgender ideology, including chemical or surgical mutilation of healthy body parts. |
No | |
Motion to fill trustee vacancies by an appointment process, rather than through by-elections or offering vacant positions to election runners-up. Anti-democratic Motion giving power to sitting trustees to arbitrarily appoint, based on some internal criteria, replacement trustees to fill vacancies. Under this Motion, voters would be totally ignored: no by-election would be called to allow voters a say in who fills a trustee vacancy; further, even trustee candidates who were runners-up in the previous municipal election, and therefore would have at least some statistical level of voters' support, would not be automaticallly approached to fill the vacancy. |

Here are quotes from Cindy Watson on various life and family issues:
Supporting the family values of concerned parents who objected to a condom contest demonstration that occurred in class without parental permission: "They (students) might feel, 'I don't need a condom; I'm not planning on having sex until I get married.' " [Waterloo Region Record, Mar. 20, 2009]
After a mom discovered her son's homework was to buy condoms for a wooden penis application competition, Watson put forth a Motion that would make it mandatory for parents to be informed in advance about the human sexuality unit for Gr. 9 & 10, to receive a rough outline of what will be taught, and to be given the chance to withdraw their kids from that class: "It's important for our board that parents not see themselves as uninvolved bystanders" [Waterloo Region Record, Mar. 24, 2009]
