Lara interrupted a land acknowledgement at her daughter’s drama presentation, calling it “race baiting.” The school banned her from campus, reported her to MCFD (Ministry of Child & Family Development), interviewed her children, and caused bullying against her daughter—all over political speech. Now Amy Hamm of The New Westminster Times interviews lawyer Lisa Bildy (Executive Director, Free Speech Union of Canada) and parent Lara Yates about this shocking school incident. Lisa Bildy explains why this violates Charter rights, why schools cannot police parents’ views, and how FSU is challenging the ban. This is a critical 2026 free speech update for Canadian parents, BC teachers, principals, administrators, school trustees, students, and anyone concerned about land acknowledgements in schools, free speech Canada, parental rights BC, school politicization, Charter violations, and reconciliation vs. indoctrination.

This powerful interview exposes a growing crisis in BC public schools: parents like Lara Yates are banned, eported to MCFD, and see their children bullied simply for opposing land acknowledgements or holding different political views. Lisa Bildy and the Free Speech Union of Canada argue this violates Charter rights and reflects dangerous politicization under DEI and reconciliation policies. A must-watch for Canadian parents, BC teachers, principals, administrators, school trustees, students, and anyone defending free expression, parental rights, and neutral education in 2026.
