It's a strange way to go about building national unity—agreeing with Alberta what should be built in BC without talking to BC about it.
Can't imagine the federal government taking this approach to a project that went through Ontario or Quebec.

AND supporting your local library is super important! If you actually DO want books to be available to everyone, the library *already exists* and is staffed by the people who are deep in the trenches of fighting censorship! Supporting the library is doing actual good for your community!
