What the Ontario sex-ed curriculum really said

I love research. Some would say I'm addicted to researchahol. (Seriously, I need a 12-step program.)

Before I begin my interviews and before I can even begin generating a source list, I need my fix.

But I tend to get carried away.

Reading articles, studies, court-documents, text-books, websites and government documents gives depth to a story. But I want to read everything. Everything.

And the sex-ed story was no exception.

I had many questions to answer: why did the Ontario government withdrawl the proposed changes to the sex-ed portion of the health and physical education curriculum? What was so controversial? What were the timelines? What did the curriculum look like prior? What did the proposed chages really say?
