With the UCP continuing to push through a curriculum that only 5% of teachers view positively and that many curriculum experts have panned as dangerous and harmful, grassroots groups across the province are banding together to raise awareness and to try and fight back. One of the ways that they’re doing this is through is through a province wide protest and rally on April 2nd.
To learn more about the how and why of this rally, we sat down again with organizer and activist, psychologist Dr. Angela Grace who is leading the charge on the Calgary event!
