One would hope that books and literature would be free from attack but, alas, that’s simply not the case. Most of the condemned books dealt with LGBTQIA issues, or the origins and problems of racism. Perhaps Canadian national leaders don’t support all this but they know their electoral base, and they empower all sorts of unsavoury ideas and actions. If anything should be banned, it’s ignorance, fear, and hatred. Perhaps that’ll be next on the list of prohibited books, unless read with reactionary and dangerous blinkers.
