BC school board bans books

The Daily Brief

About this episode

A school board in BC has told teachers to take classic books like How to Kill a Mockingbird off the Grade 10 reading curriculum, claiming that the books might offend students. Plus, an independent content creator highlighted the devastating impact of Bill C-18 on smaller media companies in a recent committee meeting discussing the legislation which was meant to save failing legacy news companies. And the Canadian Human Rights Commission’s 2024 departmental plan made no commitment to preserve freedom of expression. Tune into The Daily Brief with Cosmin Dzsurdzsa and Lindsay Shepherd!
