A few hundred people rallied at the Alberta legislature to protest a United Conservative election promise to rc.
UCP leader Jason Kenney has said if he becomes premier his party would replace legislation that prevents educators from telling parents if their child participates in a GSA club.
People at the rally carried rainbow flags and signs reading “gay straight alliances save lives” and “silence is violence.”
Afterwards, the group walked to Kenney’s Edmonton campaign headquarters.
