premier's personal account. The premier of new brunswick posted that he is furious with what he saw when someone sent him a pick. , kind of a snap of a presentation that was happening in a new brunswick school. On one slide there were questions, things like do girls masturbate, is it going to hurt when I do it for the first time? Questions that my typically come up during a sexual education class or a sex ed workshop that would be -- they would be questions like this. Perhaps when the presentation was being done by a group called cherry, hpv global action. They were there to talk about sexually transmitted infections. The premier says the topic on the slide being discussed in the presentation went far beyond the scope of what this group was there to present about. The premier says that they revoked their opportunity, their future dates to go and present in front of schools, to share information about hpv and sexually transmitted infections and sexual information generally to students, and that the province is reviewing its policies around third-party presentations like this in new brunswick schools. At the end of the note from the premier, there was a link to the P.C. party website where people can answer how concerned they are about this issue, about this topic it also signed up to volunteer for the party if they so choose. Perhaps some public feedback being collected as to how much new brunswick people care about this issue. As for the cherry, they are left scratching their heads. They say they have been doing presentations like this for years in new brunswick schools. They have been presenting a four different new brunswick schools. All of the material and contents that they present fall within the new brunswick curriculum and that material is approved in advance by the schools themselves. They are left with no longer the opportunity to share their messaging around sexually transmitted infections and the work that they were doing. Cbc new brunswick colleagues have asked the premier's office for more details about this decision and what it might mean going forward. We will get to receive a response -- we are yet to receive a response from them. >> Andrew: coming up, officials in papua new guinea say more than 2,000 people could be buried under friday's terrible landslide.

Anyone who spots the vehicle should call 911. >>> Officials in papua new guinea say more than 2,000 people may have been buried by friday's landslide. Tons of debris covered homes in the middle of the night. The most -- when most villagers were sleeping. Rescue attempt subbing hampered by the isolated location and the lack of heavy equipment. Dominic valitis is tracking the story. >> Reporter: one official at the national disaster centre centre is saying this landslide a well have killed more than 2,000 people. That is much higher than the united nations suggested over the weekend. It said 670 people were killed. It is, of course, a very difficult to establish the exact figure. That probably won't be known for quite some time. Certainly we are looking at a huge loss of life. Here is a local resident. Like [Speaking Alternate Language ] >> Reporter: you saw it there. At least 18 of his family members are feared dead as a result of the landslide which actually crashed through six villages in the district in the early hours of friday morning. Many people in those communities would have been sleeping in their homes at the time. Days have now passed since that terrible moment, and still, residents on the ground are you doing this using spades, sticks and even their bare hands to shift through the deep debris in terms -- and trying to reach for any survivors. So far, all they are finding are dead bodies. There is a wider rescue and recovery efforts going on here but it is facing significant challenges. Tribal warfare in the area has forced rescue and aid workers to travel in armed convoys and return to the provincial capital every night because it is simply not safe than. Even when they can get to the site, the conditions are extremely treacherous. Here is the u.n.'s international organization for migration. >> The problem is is it is so deep it is very difficult to recover bodies from underneath the heavy debris and the land is still sliding. Rocks are continuing to fall. >> Reporter: the actual disaster response is being handled bipap when new guinea's emergency authorities. The international community is also now responding. Australia has announced an initial $2.5 million aid package and is sending experts to help with the rescue and recovery operation and today china too said it would be providing assistance. >> Andrew: coming up, taking canada's biggest bookstore private. Shareholders of indigo books and music have voted in favor of doing just that. We will tell you what that means and have reaction just ahead on cbc news network.

This comes 27 years after the first indigo opened and after some recent and public struggles. Jeannie lee joins us with more. Walk us through what happened today. >> Reporter: the result was pretty much expected because a special committee of directors had recommended at self approving the deal and then turning it to the shareholders who decided today to, as you say, turn the page. So here is what the deal comprises of. It is for $2.50 a share or a total market value for indigo of $69 million. That is quite an approved -- improvement from where the market had valued indigo just last september at $29 million. More than double that value. The buyers are trilogy investments and trilogy retail, two holding companies, which already owned 56% of indigo. The companies are controlled and owned by gerald schwartz. The investment, private investment guru and he is the husband and -- husband of the founder and C.E.O. of indigo. Together they own about 60% of indigo anyway. The other 40% of shareholders had to look at this and say, you know what, we are getting more than what we were a little while ago and this stock chart shows you exactly what has happened with indigo's shares. Five years ago they were trading at about $8 apiece but then came the shock of the pandemic, which was followed by a recovery because of those lockdowns that kept people at home, reading books and surrounding themselves with comforting things like candles and blankets and other things that indigo also sells. At the pump did not last. In the last year, book sales and the stock have languished and almost sinking to below 1 dollar into penny stock status, which was -- would have created a whole bunch of other issues. The deal now closes in june and indigo becomes a privately owned company. >> Andrew: so what does selling indigo and telling it just turning it into a privately owned company accomplished? >> Reporter: the customers of indigo will not notice the changes right away unless, of course, one of the big advantages to becoming a private company as you can make big and bold decisions without having to answer to shareholders. This is what we should consider an we talk about companies going private. There would be more freedom to make decisions, especially big shakeups. A lot of people think that
