This is my presentation to my MP today. I'll start with asking him why the government hasn't released the Gender Based Analysis for Bill C-16?
Alberta, like other provinces in Canada, has eliminated legal sex and replaced it with 'freely declared' gender identity (M, F or X).

No supporting documents needed. Any bloke can legally become a woman, even if they are a convicted rapist. globalnews.ca/news/4262797/a…

From @Mason134211f "It's not just about the crimes of those (MtF) transfers. It's about the increased security required, the mother child program, how our programs are designed for crimes women commit as women. Pathways to crime are sex different."

@Mason134211f The only requirement for a male to transfer into a woman's prison in Canada is to self identify as a woman.
@Mason134211f I'll end by talking again about kids. About the rapid explosion in gender dysphoria among youth in Canada and around the world. About how GP's now have guidelines to put very young people on meds that will have irreversible effects on their lives.
