Just as with everywhere else, this isn't going to make children safer — especially not from abusive parents, authority figures, or peers in their offline lives, and especially not for any LGBTQ+ or neurodivergent children. This is a bad idea, period.

NDP Support Spikes Up As Avi Lewis Begins To Connect

I don't normally pay much attention to political polling, but this one is interesting. The latest Liaison Canadian federal poll shows the NDP has spiked to 16% support. That's a 5 percentage point spike over this polling agencies' previous poll.

It's similar to the NDP's 2019 election result. Of course as other polls come out, we'll see whether this is an outlier or part of a general trend upwards for the NDP.
