The Pride flag will not be flown outside Catholic schools in Peel Region and Dufferin County.
A Pride flag is raised during a ceremony at Queen's Park in Toronto on Monday, June, 23, 2014. During Tuesday night’s special board meeting, a majority of trustees with the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board voted againstallowing other flags, including the rainbow flag, to be flown outside schools and DPCDSB facilities in addition to the flags of Canada, Ontario, and those associated with the liturgical season of the Catholic church.
In 2021, the DPCDSB flew the rainbow flag outside the Catholic Education Centre “as a sign of inclusion, respect and dignity.” The DPCDSB added that schools with two flagpoles will fly the Ontario flag on the second pole, while facilities with three flagpoles will raise a flag associated with the current Liturgical Season of the Catholic church on the third pole.
