Note for those who donât know: trans teens cannot currently have surgery and no-one is advocating for them to have surgery. What the Tories want to ban is puberty blockers and counselling. Puberty blockers are reversible (and anyway detransitioning is incredibly rare).
You can bet that the Tories will roll back even the somewhat skimpy climate policies offered by Trudeau too.

«Samah Sabra, director of equity, diversity and inclusion at Niagara College, said pushback like this often comes when social activists are making the most gains.
âWhen an equity-deserving group gains rights they have fought hard for, the gains come with increased visibility,â she said. As minority groups like transgender people become more visible, it becomes harder for prejudiced people to ignore them, she added.»
Un texte de Celeste Trianon sur la controverse du Mx. Rappelons que cette affaire a été créée par un parent conspirationniste affilié au Convoi de la Liberté, pas par des parents «ordinaires».
«Câest dans ce contexte-ci, de haine croissante envers les personnes trans tant au QuĂ©bec quâailleurs dans le monde, que la nouvelle se passe: un·e professeur·e souhaite que ses Ă©tudiant·es utilisent un pronom et un titre de civilitĂ© de son choix correctement, en lâoccurrence, le titre «Mx» (prononcĂ© Mix).
Ce titre, utilisé depuis la fin des années 70, figure dans le dictionnaire anglophone Merriam-Webster depuis 2016.»

La nouvelle politique anti-trans et anti éducation sexuelle, en #Saskatchewan, pourrait menacer la sécurité des jeunes personnes trans et causer une augmentation des cas d'#ITSS - rappelons que les organismes tiers qui donnent de l'info sur le sujet sont également bannis des écoles, et que seul.e.s les profs (généralement mal formé.e.s sur ces enjeux) ou intervenant.e.s internes pourront éduquer les enfants sur ces enjeux.
«"Saskatchewan, as a province has the highest national levels of HIV, of hepatitis C, of teenage pregnancy, it has the second highest rates of sexualized violence, we also have some of the highest rates of chlamydia and gonorrhea in the country," Saskatoon Sexual Health executive director Caitlin Cottrel told CTV News.»

Le groupe #haineux qui a attaqué une soirée de performances #drag à #Beirout est un groupe ultraconservateur chrétien.
«Men from an anti-LGBT group attacked a bar in #Lebanon where a drag event was being held on August 23, while threatening violence against LGBT people.
âWe stopped the show and had to hide behind the bar, lying down on the floor, breathless,â one of the performers told me. âThe police stood on the side, watching, as the men were beating people.â»

En résumé, la nouvelle politique saskatchewanaise, vraisemblablement inspirée de celle du Nouveau-Brunswick (la politique 713), interdit aux jeunes de moins de 16 ans de choisir leurs pronoms/nom sans l'accord de leurs parents.
Sauf qu'elle va plus loin.
Elle interdit également l'intervention d'organismes tiers dans l'éducation sexuelle à l'école - donc plus aucune sensibilisation par des intervenant-e-s d'OSBL - et accorde aux parents le droit de retirer leurs enfants des cours d'éducation sexuelle.
C'est un abus des droits des enfants et des mineur.e.s, mais aussi de la censure.

The Progress #Pride flag is up for Public Service Pride week (next week) at the #Lethbridge Research and Development Centre. I believe that I put it up according to the correct federal #Canadian Pride flag protocols, where the Canadian flag is on the left side of the desk and the Pride flag is on the far right. #PrideSeason in Canada runs from June to August.

Les trans en état d'alerte
« Je ne me sens pas en sĂ©curitĂ©, mais je ne me suis jamais sentie en sĂ©curitĂ©, confirme dâailleurs Jade, femme trans de 18 ans. Je pense quâil est difficile de ne pas ĂȘtre parano quand tu es trans, parce que tu ne peux jamais prĂ©sumer que les gens vont tâaccepter comme tu es. »

En juin dernier, une éditorialiste du #NationalPost a qualifié le financement d'une recherche sur la transphobie «d'astroturfing».
Le PostMillenial, en référant à une campagne de sensibilisation sur les enjeux #2SLGBTQIA, parle maintenant de «purge».
Les mots mis entre guillemets par le PM ne figurent apparemment nulle part dans les documents du gouvernement.

Sex work is often the most accessible job for disabled people, and transgender people. As disabilities are more common in groups oppressed under white supremacy (BIPOC, women, and 2SLGBTQIA+) supporting disability advocates, and sex workers rights is part of anti-racism work, and 2SLGBTQIA+ allyship. We're all connected, and we all benefit from better policies that respect autonomy, and improve workers rights.
