Editor:
The two motions passed by the Conservative party at their convention attack the rights of the queer and trans community. The first motion would prevent trans youth from accessing gender-affirming care and the second would prevent trans women from accessing key public services. All these motions would accomplish, if passed into law, would be to make life less safe for queer and trans people.
These hateful and exclusionary policies distract from the real issues facing Canadians: the cost-of-living crisis and the ongoing climate emergency.
It’s time now to take action on these pressing issues.
Sincerely,
Bonnie Waterstone, Gibsons
