BC school district bans anti-LGBTQ group from presenting at board meetings
An anti-LGBTQ group will no longer be able to present at Mission Public Schools meetings after receiving a ban from the board.
Mission Public Schools board chair Shelley Carter says the district is inclusive, diverse, and accepting and does not condone misleading and hateful propaganda. “Action4Canada is concerned about many things in Canada, from immigration to vaccines to 15 minute cities, and they aren’t willing to believe the information we have provided them, as well as other agencies like the RCMP, over and over again. It is pretty frustrating.”
According to Mission Public Schools, the group did not follow the presentation procedure that they were informed of by staff. Wilson said they subsequently tried to connect conspiracy theories about the United Nations to Indigenous people. Gladstone says at the policing forum, the group requested a stop to land acknowledgments, saying “it’s God’s land, not Indigenous land.”
