At his campaign launch in Etobicoke, Ont., Tuesday night, Ford repeated his pledge to replace the sex-ed curriculum, getting cheers from the crowd of hundreds. "We will scrap the current sex-ed curriculum and we will make sure that we consult with parents." The sex-ed curriculum sparked controversy, particularly among social conservatives, when the Liberal government introduced it in 2015. Ford wouldn't say what parts of the sex-ed curriculum he takes issue with, only that parents were not consulted enough. She called the removal a "betrayal" of social conservatives, and said she hoped Ford would at least promise to repeal and replace the sex-ed curriculum.
