"Pausing" Danielle Smith's Alberta book ban is not the same as retracting Danielle Smith's Alberta book ban.

Good distraction from Danielle Smith’s $6.3 billion deficit, though, eh?

Danielle’s book ban is Danielle’s book ban by any other name.

And it stinks.

CAIABB stands against all book bans. Books should never be secretly and silently removed from the shelves.

Danielle Smith's book ban is a war on our beloved librarians as well as an attempt at censorship in Alberta.

Canadians have a right to know which books are being banned in our country's schools as a result of a provincial government order. Books should never silently disappear. Someone needs to leak these lists. #abed #albertabookban

In 30 minutes I get to write a new letter to Nicholades and Smith about their newest stupid book ban and how no matter how they phrase it, it is still a book ban.

Alberta’s new book bans mirror the same fear-driven politics seen in U.S. states like Florida. #abpoli #albertabookban
The lists we keep, and the ones that keep us
Lists can chronicle our growth, or a society's regression.

I keep seeing the book banning in ‘Berta as being commandeered by “socially conservative” groups. I’d argue they should more aptly be named as socially regressive.

Anyway, when the Guardian is writing about us, it’s never good.

I grew up without queer literature. My first intro to queer writing was yugioh fanfiction when I was gay. I didn't see a published book with queer themes until I was 18. I still ended up gay. Banning the books won't make us disappear #albertabookban #abpoli

I look forward to the very specific list targeting a specific segment of the population under the guise of "protecting the youth".

It is exhausting to have to fight authoritarianism in Alberta especially if you grew up under a dictatorship that censored and disappeared authors and publishers.

Amused at Alberta’s kerfuffle over books. Many of those that were to be banned were on reading lists at my all-girls Catholic convent school in the 1970s. Somehow we survived—and my parents didn’t bat an eye. Bring on The Diviners!
