The article referred to the LGBT YouthLine website as “pornographic” and a “smut site” because it contains third-party links to mature subject matter. LGBT YouthLine is a peer support line for queer and trans identifying youth up to age 29. YouthLine released a statement on Monday urging the school board to reinstate the link to the support line and to provide more resources for students. She said the YouthLine link was removed prior to the publication of the Corriere Canadese article. Pasquale said he believes in the importance of YouthLine, noting there are not many resources available for LGBTQ+ youth.
