I have talked to people in the US who legit believe the BSA is "too woke". This is the same organization that banned gay people from being members until middle of last decade, by the way.
Meanwhile Scouting Canada officially went co-ed in the 90's and accepted gay members in the 00's.
Not only that but in 2000 Scout Quebec organize a big Jam on the Plaine d’Abrahams. They were scout from everywhere in the Americas … Boy Scout US ghost the organizers and didn’t want to come on some stupid reason
Turns out everyone were happy they didn’t come
