Ahead of the upcoming school year, B.C. Premier David Eby announced that cellphones will be restricted in B.C. schools "from bell to bell."

You realize colleges and universities are schools, right?

You realize it only mentions k-12 in the article and bill right? So while they are schools I can’t find mention of them in this act. Can you please show where it says Universites are included? It does not in the article or the link below.

It’s vague and doesn’t exclude them.

this doesnt prevent students or college protests, its to prevent outsiders protesting on school grounds (“think of the children” conservatives, Qnuts, religious or prolife groups etc etc)
