We thought it would be nice to spread the love and promote a holiday season where it’s safe to be you!

We are giving away copies of the book “Boy Erased” by Garrad Conley, telling the story of a survivor -- a young boy submitted to the harmful practice of conversion therapy. This book promotes the right every human being has to be themselves, without facing hardships because of their sexual identity or orientation.

To enter the contest, log on to Instagram and follow 'It Gets Better Canada', then post a selfie on your Instagram tagged #RightToBeYouCanada and #ItGetsBetterCanada. The first five people to follow and post will get a copy of the book plus a free double-pass to see the critically acclaimed film version of the book, starring Nicole Kidman, Russel Crow and Lukas Hedges. The next five get a free movie pass. 

Good luck and happy holidays!
