![]() ![]() I couldn’t even sleep because the injustice of it all outraged me so much!ĮVERY SINGLE TV STATION WAS LYING TO THEIR VIEWERS!! ![]() While I watched the news on Saturday night, and again the next day, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and hearing. Why do so many Albertans remain oblivious to these tremendous concerns?Īs I discovered, the biggest fault by far lies with the media. Unfortunately, there are still many more Albertans who are not aware of the extent of Bill 10 and the Guidelines and the implications they have for families. The majority of people against Bill 10 agree the transgender group is one of many minority groups that experience bullying.

There were many parents with small children, as well as many concerned grandparents such as myself. Saturday May 14th, 2016 I traveled from Central Alberta to the Parents for Choice in Education peaceful rally in Edmonton, attended by over 4300 people in both Edmonton and Calgary.
