A Rainbow Tent performer and her mother decided to organize a protest rally outside the office of the Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools (GSCS) division over an email telling teachers to not take their students to the Rainbow Tent.

The Rainbow Tent is at the Nutrien Children’s Festival (NCF) coming up on June 1 to 4 in Saskatoon and targeted at children ages “2 to 12-year-olds,” according to the organizers. This is the first year for the Rainbow Tent, which has events “from Drag Queen Storytime to inclusive dress-up performances filled with colour and fun, this tent is full of rainbows.”
