My purple letter to Premier Clark and Minister Abbott
Dear Premier Clark and Minister Abbott:
I am writing you in support of the Purple Letter Campaign to urge you to ensure there is
a province-wide policy in every school in BC, to make schools safe and inclusive for all
students and to end discrimination against students based on their sexual orientation or
gender identity.
The issue of ending bulling, discrimination, depression and youth suicide is extremely
important because it has such devastating effects on families, communities, friends
and individuals. We all need to work proactively to develop and implement policy that
support and build inclusiveness. The safety of all students and youth must be paramount
in our institutions and particularly in our schools.
Eliminating homophobia and transphobia has to be all our goals everywhere in the
province. Please adopt a province-wide policy to ensure that all children are save and
have chance to mature and be happy.
Yours sincerely
Brent Granby
