Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said the government will be requiring parental notification and consent if a child 15 years or younger changes their name and pronouns at school.

Good on Danielle, for really stepping up her game.

Previously she was letting people die from lack of healthcare and support, but she's finally stepped up to the plate and announced that she's willing to commit murder.

Sorry, but her name isn't actually Danielle and I didn't see a parental consent slip. Please call her by her actual name, Marlaina Smith, so no one gets in trouble

Holy shit! Not knowing whether you were joking or not, I did a basic wikipedia search. Unless someone has vandalized her page, you're right.

So who is she to talk? Why aren't interviewers pressing her on this?

Don't give her too much credit. She's copying this policy directly from New Brunswick.

Hey, don’t forget about Saskatchewan!
