Debate Grows Over Bill 28 and Public Library Content in Medicine Hat
Debate is intensifying over Bill 28, legislation the provincial government says is designed to protect children from exposure to sexually explicit material in public libraries. The Medicine Hat Public Library Board and some library users argue the bill could interfere with community choice and freedom of access. The province maintains the legislation does not mandate book removals and focuses on parental consent. The bill is expected to become law after receiving royal assent next year.
