Where children are told they are perfect just the way they are, and are not treated with dangerous drugs, hormones or surgery because an adult told them they were "born in the wrong body". 3/7
"I saw women's rights being eroded in Canada in front of my eyes. I found myself asking 'Where is a women's group in Canada who is standing up for women?' I'm happy caWsbar is filling this huge need."
