Blacklock's is reporting that 7,000 pages was removed from the Library and Archives Canada website, including historical information about the RCMP, initially based on the complaint of one Toronto Star reporter, @JacquesGallant . The Chief Archivist told her staff "outdated historical content no longer reflects today’s context and may be offensive to many." This of course misses the point: Historical writings exist, including views in a previous era. To scrub that is to send history down an Orwellian memory hole in favour of a presumed omniscient interpretation of millennia of human history today. Blacklock's is by subscription only but here's a previous column I wrote on such approaches to the RCMP. https://t.co/5hDpB7TFqv

This seems like a really stupid move.
I grew up going to all kinds of branches of the Hamilton Public Library System.
They were safe places for kids to learn and explore.
This would kill that.

Have public libraries abandoned neutrality to push partisanship?

Michael Dudley, librarian at @uwinnipeg, argues that many Canadian libraries have selectively excluded gender-critical perspectives, thereby stifling public debate on a controversial issue:
