Adding to the "well, so much for EPSB standing up for kids" news today, apparently they've also sent out a form requiring confirmation of biological sex to play on girls' teams. Yegwave is a dodgy source, but I've heard confirmation elsewhere that teachers have been told they must use this form.

Well, the list of books being banned from EPSB is appalling. And it's very likely that an author on this list will get their other works pulled too, especially in the absence of teacher librarians.
There are books on this list that changed my life. This is what the UCP is taking away from kids.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

CBC News Fact Check reports Pierre Poilievre repeated a misrepresentation from the Fraser Institute, that Canadians pay 43% of their income on all taxes. Wrong! The Institute included CPP and EI payments which are NOT taxes, knowingly making 43% a lie. Words matter. #cdnpoli

Do not forget all the attacks Pierre made on our media and our democratic institutions like the Supreme Court and the Bank of Canada, or all the promises he made to "defund" and reform our government, parroting MAGA to the south and their destructive DOGE. Or his undermining of vaccines and science.

There were warning signs all along the way with Trump, Musk, and MAGA, and there have been warning signs all along the way with Danielle Smith, Pierre Poilievre and their core conservative supporters. They are all cut from the same cloth, no matter what they pretend to be during our election.
