It was supposed to be a trip of a lifetime for a 15 year-old-girl with autism from Mission, B.C.
Months ago, Brooklyn signed up for a student exchange program to Prince Edward Island through her school, raising funds to pay for the trip and hosting a student from the eastern province in her home.
But Brooklyn has now called off the trip because she says school officials are discriminating against her because she has autism and epilepsy.
