About this episode
Two Canadian provinces have sparked controversy with policies that would impact students who want to adopt a new name or pronouns at school.
Saskatchewan and New Brunswick have indicated that parents students under 16 have to be notified if their child wants to socially transition at school.
National Post reporter Tristin Hopper joins the show to discuss why they want to implement these policies, why groups are opposed to the move, and how Canadians feel about the issue.
