🇨🇦The Minister of Justice has reintroduced a bill of ban conversion therapy as #billc6. Text is not yet available but it is said to be the same as #billc8. The bill is only at first reading so debate was very short. @BardishKW spoke for the govt using the slogan @freetobeme_ca /2
Opposition leader @erinotoole emphasized his support for the LGBT community but spoke about the need for changes to the bill so it will not criminalize private conversations between parents, teachers etc. He did not specifically refer to therapy or gender identity issues /3
@r_garrison for the NDP supported the bill but said that his party would be looked for amendments to expand the restrictions on "conversion therapy" for gender identity. The Bloc and Green speakers supported the govt without adding anything new. /4
It will be an uphill battle to get changes to the bill to ensure that gender non-conforming children are protected from medical harm. We are likely to see competing amendments from the Conservatives and NDP and the Liberals will then claim the bill is a reasonable middle ground.

1/ Fans of Stranger Things might think that the experiments on helpless children by Dr. Brenner are as much a fantasy creation as demigorgons, but the history of unethical human experimentation in the US is frighteningly real and recent. [**Spoilers to follow**] Image
2/ The CIA ran the infamous MK-Ultra experiments on mind control in which involved hypnosis, electroshock and doses of LSD on subjects who did not consent or volunteered under coercion. history.com/mkultra-operat…
3/ Some of the most damaging experiments were conducted in Canada by Dr. Ewen Cameron at the Allan Memorial Institute at McGill University in Montreal. thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/mku…

1/ In 2025 the collapse of gender ideology began in earnest. People around the world have had enough of men pushing into women's spaces and sterilizing confused children in the name of "affirmative care". Politicians and the courts started to listen.
2/ As 2024 ended, an article by a group at the Amsterdam clinic made it clear that the leading proponents of gender affirming treatments have abandoned evidence-based medicine for pure gender ideology.

3/ In the last days of the Biden administration, a U.S. Federal Court vacated Title IX rules which equated sex with gender identity.

1/ The NHS clinical trial of puberty blockers has now been approved and will start recruiting patients. The full trial protocol and a simplified study description are available here. kcl.ac.uk/research/pathw…
2/ I discussed the ethics of a puberty blockers trial in a thread and a Substack. None of the concerns I raised have been answered in the trial protocol.

1/ In his embarrassing interview with Stella O'Malley and Mia Hughes, Gordon Guyatt repeated the claim that the Health and Human Services report on gender medicine used the McMaster reviews to justify the denial of care to transgender people.
2/ This is a misrepresentation of the HHS report, which does not make any policy recommendations. It does present evidence which could be used to justify a ban on pediatric gender medicine but this evidence goes well beyond the systematic reviews.
opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/…
3/ The HHS report conducted an umbrella review of all of the systematic reviews of pediatric gender medicine, and not just the McMaster reviews, to support the finding that the evidence of benefit is low certainty.

1/ One aspect of the controversy over @GuyattGH, @segm_ebm and the McMaster systematic reviews which has not been noted is the link with Egale Canada and ongoing litigation over the pediatric gender medicine ban in Alberta.
@GuyattGH @segm_ebm 2/ Egale Canada is the plaintiff in an action to block the Alberta legislation restricting medical transition of minors. A judge granted an interim injunction against the implementation of the law, and the government has appealed cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
@GuyattGH @segm_ebm 3/ An analysis of the injunction decision by @GeoffSigalet argues that the judge was operating inside a liberal misinformation bubble. macdonaldlaurier.ca/a-misinformati…

A short but pointed thread by another leading figure in evidence based medicine on the extent to which the recent statement @GuyattGH and some of his colleagues on their systematic reviews of gender medicine betrays the core principles he helped to develop. /2
One of the principles of evidence based medicine is avoiding bias through management of conflicts of interest. The methodologists who lead systematic reviews and guideline development are supposed to be neutral on the clinical and policy implications of their work. /3
By expressing the opinions in the letter and donating to Egale Canada, which is a highly partisan advocacy group supporting medical transition of minors, Guyatt and his team are putting themselves in a position of intellectual conflict of interest on issues of gender medicine. /4
