Schools told, “No more hiding a child’s gender transitioning from parents!”Dear Arthur, I want to share a powerful video with you about a Conservative politician – that’s, right, a Conservative politician – who schooled his liberal counterparts about parental rights. The man’s name is Kris Austin, a Progressive Conservative MLA in New Brunswick who also happens to be the province’s Minister of Public Safety. Last week, he stood up in the legislature to make some heart-felt comments in response to the criticism his party has been receiving from LGBT activists and even from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, over its changes to policy 713 on “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity”. Now, I’ll get to more on that in just a moment, but first, I want to share the video of the speech because it’s so good.
Like I mentioned earlier, Austin delivered his speech in response to the changes the Progressive Conservative government made to policy 713, which has turned into a real battle for Premier Blaine Higgs. The changes to policy 713 come into effect on July 1st and they will make sure that schools will no longer be able to hide gender transitioning of young children from their parents. To me, there’s a lot more that still needs to be done, but when you look at our current political climate … This move by Premier Higgs is one of the most hopeful policy reforms to protect parental rights that I’ve seen in a long time. As you might expect, Mr. Higgs and his party have been the targets of LGBT activists, and their allies in the legacy media, who think that politicians and educrats know more about how to raise children than parents do, and … That’s why we launched an Action Alert Email campaign, encouraging our local supporters in New Brunswick to email and phone their elected officials in support of the changes to 713. If you live in New Brunswick and haven’t contacted your MLA about this, here’s your chance. Quickly send an Action Alert Email to your MLA by clicking here. The campaign is only open to people who live in New Brunswick, but that got me thinking … “Jeff,” I said to myself, “why isn’t this being rolled out across the country?” So, I answered my own question and decided to send out this email to all of our supporters, so they can influence their provincial governments to follow the lead of Premier Higgs. THE STATE DOESN’T OWN OUR KIDSPlease, email and call your provincial Premier and Minister of Education and ask them to follow New Brunswick’s example by instituting a policy that requires parental consent before minor children can use opposite sex pronouns and change their names at school.
