The attacks on trans rights, which are basic human rights, are a terrible injustice and an attack on truth and fact as well. Everyone should be deeply alarmed and it should be disqualifying for a politician to support such discrimination.

Hugely important thread of info on this. Compassion Club was an overwhelmingly reasonable, considered, and just attempt to stop mass death completely ignored by all levels of government. Every single level of government could be saving lives tomorrow and chooses not to, everyday.
Been covering DULF's constitutional challenge for @thetyee.ca this week. Crown prosecutors have tried to poke lots of small holes in what founders Eris Nyx and Jeremy Kalicum were doing. Nyx and Kalicum have largely defended themselves saying they were doing the best they knew how at the time.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I particularly want to stress that the violence we talk about trans people experiencing isn't just murder or domestic abuse or assault.
There is also legislative violence—far too much of it. And we lose lives to that every year too.

The Alberta government putting out a statement for Trans Day of Remembrance two days after using the Notwithstanding Clause to override trans kids rights feels like parody at this point
"Our government remains a dedicated partner of transgender Albertans.”

Opinion: B.C. has a revenue problem, not a spending problem
