11. Gender Ideology in Schools Alberta seniors have been vocal about their opposition to gender ideology being embedded in federal-influenced school curricula, seeing it as an imposition on parental rights and a departure from the biological and Christian values they raised their families with.

Rapid Pace of Immigration and Cultural Change Many long-time Alberta residents, particularly seniors, have expressed concern that the unprecedented pace of federal immigration policy — with record-high annual targets — is changing the cultural fabric of communities they’ve lived in for decades faster than integration can accommodate.
