Challenges in Canada

1994—The school board in Sechelt (BC), responding to a parental complaint, removed this book from student use in Chatelech Secondary School.

Objection—Anthology was said to present an anti-establishment view and to present sex and four-letter words in a positive light.

Update—The school board decided, following a review, that the book should remain in the library. The sole copy has since been stolen and not replaced.
