The Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), a right-leaning lobbying group that describes itself as pro-life, recently mailed flyers to 160,000 New Brunswick homes accusing provincial schools of “pushing” an unspecified transgender agenda. Progressive Conservative Premier Blaine Higgs has been urged to denounce the flyers.
New Brunswick Liberal Leader Susan Holt — Higgs’s main rival in the October provincial election — condemned the flyers as an attack on students and teachers, but she ignored its implications for 2SLGBTQ+ New Brunswickers.
Green Party leader David Coon more bluntly called on the premier to publicly reject what he saw as a blatant attack on 2SLGBTQ+ students.
