Ottawa (June 14, 2023) - Today, 39 queer, trans, human rights, labour and educational organizations from across Canada have released an Open Letter to Defend 2SLGBTQIA+ Students in New Brunswick and call on Premier Higgs to reverse his attack on vulnerable students. Standing with students, parents and families, the letter calls on the Premier to reverse the weakened Policy 713, uphold human rights codes, and end the cruel campaign against 2SLGTBQIA+ New Brunswickers.

Be you, MORE

Oh I love that haha. And you make a great point there, it definitely has become a matter of personality and even community for these people. When there was a protest against drag story time in Moncton a few weeks back, I was there counter-protesting. One of the dudes protesting, who was livestreaming the whole thing on FB, had driven there from Miramichi on his birthday to go whine about drag performers reading to kids. Like how pathetic is that? It's honestly sad.

It’s completely and totally pathetic but as you put it, it gives them a sense of community. There’s gotta be something else to create a community around though besides hating on minorities.
