Blaine Higgs on why he won’t relent on New Brunswick’s school-gender controversy
Listen now
Description
Cabinet ministers have quit. Some party leaders are calling for him to resign. But New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs tells Brian Lilley he’ll stake his political career to take a stand for parents in his province to be involved when their kids ask at school to be identified by a different gender or name. Higgs discusses what he thinks of attempts by Justin Trudeau, activists, and progressive media to portray him as “far right,” and why he’s confident the public is on his side. The premier also shares his own thoughts about the prime minister and federal policies he believes are hurting New Brunswick — and the country.
