Now up against the Saskatchewan Party government's pronoun and naming changes in schools, she says she's prepared to fight again."I'm a scrapper. I'm not quitting."
Forsberg said she plans to file another humans rights complaint, possibly with other people, over Saskatchewan's recent changes that affect LGBTQ children.

A spokesperson with the association said it has begun discussing legal possibilities with organizations in Saskatchewan.
