Heather Stilwell, a controversial political ally of Langley MLA Mary Polak, has been appointed to the B.C. College of Social Workers. Stilwell is a former longtime Surrey school trustee. She is well known for championing a number of controversial causes, including an attempt to ban three books about children with gay parents in the Surrey School District. Polak, also a member of the school board at the time, was a key political ally of Stilwell.
Read about Heather Stilwell:
"Heather Stilwell is a school trustee in Surrey, British Columbia. She is a Christian and is well-known for her opinions opposing homosexuality, abortion, and sex education. She and her husband Bill were involved in the genesis of the Christian Heritage Party in 1984 when some 12 people discussed the concept of such a party, which was registered with Elections Canada in June 1986. From April 1993 to March 1994 she was the interim leader of the party and ran in the 1993 federal election in the riding of Surrey—White Rock—South Langley. One of the most contentious policies of the Christian Heritage Party Policy is Section 6.4.3. which states: "Concerning the welfare of this Nation's citizens, we favour recriminalizing in the Criminal Code of Canada the murder of pre-born children, sexual deviancy, and pornography."
