"These bills restrict gender reassignment surgery for minors and prohibit puberty blockers and hormone treatments for those younger than 16 years" "require parental consent for children under 16 to change their pronouns or names at school for gender identity reasons" "parents must give permission for teaching on gender identity, sexual orientation, or human sexuality." GREAT NEWS, it is well past time our children are protected from this attack on them. Only one point I think it should have been 18, they are adults then.

It would have been better if the age was increased to 18 but I know kids that are 12 that make better choices than adults that are 30.

No matter how you look at it though Smith is doing right by her constituents-maybe she could come to Ontario on loan for a month or two and teach Ford how to be a Conservative.

OR ...... how about the people in Ontario waking up and electing a real leader that is both capable and willing to govern genuinely on behalf of his constituents instead of for himself, his party (whatever THAT is), his preferred political ideology, or his financial supporters.

The same can be said for replacing the woke reprobates leading our country from their seats in Ottawa.

Unfortunately to often Greed and personal gratification comes into play.

I concur with your thoughts about Ontario for the potential future but Carnage Carney is filling Brampton with immigrants as fast as he can with new up and coming voters who will vote for the hand that feeds them.

Now as in Ottawa-Generou is stepping down but to abstain is the same as supporting the Liberals - Stubbs gets a pass for medical but the 2 from the NDP I only see it as ongoing Lapdog Singhalong betrayal of Canada

Dear God - do NOT send that mentally stunted buffoon this way for training please. Of course if he did come, we could quickly lead him away from our fair province with a trail of candied donuts leading on to a jet to Afghanistan....one way.

No no I would not consider it. I would only hope Smith would grant Ontario the good fortune of providing Ford the wisdom of being a true Conservative

Agreed, and I would take it a step further - puberty blockers and hormone treatment should be banned for any age. Gender issues should be talked out and discussed at any age. I think these issues are often due to childhood trauma combined with programming, media and peer pressure, and lack of appropriate role models. These issues are not resolvable by wrecking the urinary tract and surrounding parts and giving drugs that cause early bone damage and Forever Medicalization.

The media and peer pressure are definitely a big part of it, but these days there's also direct indoctrination in schools by teachers themselves.

Absolutely. Some, not all, of the teachers are, I hate to say it, slobs. A far cry from the teachers I had in the 50's and 60's.

I agree with everything you stated here. These children while under 19 should not be allowed to change genders. They are not mature enough to make such a life altering decision

How anyone could have a problem with these protections for children is beyond me. Alberta is leading the way in Canada, and thank God for that.

Indeed - anyone against this should be considered for child endangerment charges.

Questions:

Why does the Federal Liberal Government want children to be able to make life altering sex change decisions?

Why does the Federal Liberal Government want men in women's washrooms?

Why does the Federal Liberal Government want men playing in women's sports?

Why does the Federal Liberal Government want to remove the Province's ability to invoke the NWC?

Answer:

The questions above are but some of the things that the Federal Liberal Government stands for when it comes to messing things up.

It's how the abomination of the Liberal alphabet soup crowd rolls.

More proof why they should never have been given another term.

Too late now Canada.

You are done.

Yep, done! I was trying to figure out a way to wake up the conservatives to start laying criminal charges against the lieberal regime. They seem blind to the ill crimes and in some cases treason, that has been done and still going on by the lieberal regime.

Its hard when the RCMP seem to cover up every scandal the Liberals get into.... For some reason no charges are ever laid against these criminals. [But hey Truckers, go get them Gestapo boys!....the hypocrisy is just awful!]

This will enrage the NDP, ATA and school boards. I would suggest that most of these people believe that what is taught to our kids in the way of sexual, gender and political content is only and soley dependant upon whatever they believe should be in the content of the curriculum as well as keeping and preventing parents from having any say, knowledge or input into what their kids are subjected to and indoctrinated with in the schools....Their far left wing woke extreme ideologies run far and deep and I would not be surprised that this may be one of the reasons why the ATA, NDP and other unions initiated their UCP recall campaign and why they will spend millions of dollars to attempt to bring down the UCP government with their recall campaign.....This is purely and clearly a fight between good and evil....Lets hope that good will prevail....

Danielle Smith a very good move, this is exactly why we need our legislators so that can override decisions made by the judiciary that are not in the best interests of citizen's . We sorely need this pushback which is going to protect our children until they are adults and are able to properly understand what they wish to do.

A conservative government taking the high ground. Excellent. Now if they would address abortion - the moral failing of our time.
