Rallies and counter-rallies in Charlottetown and across Canada on Wednesday

Thousands of people across Canada, including Charlottetown, were protesting and
counter-protesting Wednesday about sexuality and gender identity, arguing whether it should be taught in schools or not.
Separated by lines of police officers, the demonstrations were spurred by school policies put in place in New Brunswick and Saskatchewan, that require young people to get parental consent
before teachers can use their preferred first names and pronouns.  The rally in Charlottetown saw a lot of tension and heated moments between the protestors and counter-protestors, but police were on-scene to help control the situation.  The protest started outside Province House and then there was a march to the Provincial Government Shaw Building.
