And again, this would have been an easy debate to dodge. Simply exclude that change from the reversions of NDP policy and you don't even start a political issue about this. Given that reality, it appears to be a deliberate provocation.
If I'm a parent, i would want the ability to know. Hopefully I've done a good enough job and have a strong enough line of communication with my son/daughter that they'd be open to telling me...but I would like to know so I could figure out how to help parent that way too.

These kids won't always know what is best for them at say 14 or 15 or whatever. They're young, still figuring things out.

If I can learn and understand more, then I can also help guide them.

And maybe I am misunderstanding what the contention is around GSA which could be possible.
