A transgender teacher with Z-cup prosthetic breasts has finally been suspended from her Canadian school after pictures surfaced of her in men’s clothing.
Kayla Lemieux, who claims the breasts are real and the result of an illness, has come under fire for her provocative clothing, as parents previously claimed she “mocks women and the educational experience”.
The Halton District School Board confirmed she was placed on paid leave on Tuesday – although she continues to be paid for her role at Oakville Trafalgar High School.
“Although the teacher currently has no active assignment, she remains employed by the HDSB (Halton District School Board),” board spokesman Heather Francey told the Toronto Sun.
It came as students’ parents lined up to attack the school board for not enforcing a stricter dress code on Lemieux sooner.

A mother told the board at a meeting Wednesday night that it was imperative that “identities and expressions presented in the school environment be scrutinized against the child’s protective practices.”
However, Lemieux was not mentioned by name during the tense session
The school has had three bomb threats since September 2022.
Lemieux has bizarrely insisted her breasts are natural and the result of a condition called ‘gigantomastia’ – although she admits she’s never received a formal medical diagnosis.
She also claims to be intersex and not transgender.
But her account has been questioned by Lemieux’s neighbors, who claim to have seen her out and about in men’s clothing – sans prosthetic limbs and wig.
A neighbor identified this person as Lemieux. They were later seen driving in and out of the block of flats and later walking on the sidewalk.
Images released by the New York Post showed a man believed to be Lemieux, breastless and in scruffy gray clothing.
“He rarely wears breast prostheses,” said the neighbor. “He puts on the breasts to teach, occasionally when he goes for a walk or when the police come to visit.”
A law enforcement source also says officers — both in uniform and in plain clothes — are conducting regular social checks at her home.
The neighbor claims that Lemieux’s outfit is usually totally unmissable after she started going public as a woman in May 2022.
Last week a person was spotted with a post-Lemieux strike wearing men’s clothing – sans prosthetics and a wig. Lemieux can be seen in the summer of 2022
Lemieux has made headlines multiple times and began transitioning from male to female in 2021
“I drove by. You can see the boobs from so far away when you drive,” he said. “He put on the whole outfit and just walked up and down the Guelph Line – no bags, just walking. Everyone slows down because you can’t believe what they’re seeing.’
Lemieux’s appearance was the subject of heated debate.
This week, Ontario Secretary of Education Stephen Lecce told the Toronto Star: “Halton’s parents are rightly outraged by what is happening.”
“Halton’s parents are rightly outraged by what is happening…
“The welfare of children should be a priority in our judgments in school boards and in government.”
“I don’t wear breast prostheses. These are real,” Canadian Lemieux told the New York Post last week, explaining that she wasn’t born “transgender,” but “intersex.”
“My condition is classified as gigantomastia, which can also be referred to as macromastia or breast hypertrophy,” Lemieux said, though she noted she’d never received a formal medical diagnosis.
Students shared videos of Lemieux at other schools while she was recovering from a foot injury, showing her walking with crutches
As of this week, the teacher had the support of her school board, who said the issue was a “staff issue.”
The district also claimed that the teacher’s intervention or criticism would violate Ontario’s human rights code.
“The HDSB recognizes the rights of students, staff, parents/guardians and community members to equal treatment without discrimination based on gender identity and gender expression. Gender identity and gender expression are protected grounds under Ontario’s Human Rights Code,” the board said in a statement.
