A long-time employee of Boston Children’s Hospital was fired after privately communicating with me about the response of the hospital to these viral videos.

She found a better job and is happier now.

A paramedic in Ontario was investigated by his employer after he stood on the street with me one day.

He had to leave work on stress leave.

An instructor at an Ivy League university was investigated by her employer for attending a protest with me, even though she masked up to hide her identity, and they placed another university staff member in the room for every lecture she gave from that point forward, in order to observe her conduct.

A psychologist named Wallace Wong, who works for the BC government, is transitioning over 1000 children, including more than 500 foster kids.

68% of foster kids in BC are indigenous.

Yes, our politicians who love to virtue signal about harm done to indigenous communities in the past are actively maiming and sterilizing indigenous kids today.

At a public talk over 6 years ago, Wallace Wong gave the following advice to parents and trans-identifying children if they aren’t getting puberty blockers and hormones right away.

"So what you need is, you know what? Pull a stunt. Suicide, every time, [then] they will give you what you need.” -Wallace Wong, BC Ministry of Children and Family Development

This, of course, is not surprising. Weaponizing suicide is the number one coercive tactic these activists have used for years.

Child transition is child abuse, and we are going to stop it.

Thank you to @Dallas_Brodie of @One_BCHQ for fighting for our kids.

The fake Conservative Party of BC certainly won’t do it.

Here’s more on Wallace Wong, who should be in prison.

The transcript and the audio of his talk where he coaches kids to fake being suicidal in order to get puberty blockers and hormones is all here.

I’m on a worldwide mission to help stop the most insane child abuse scandal in modern history.

If you wish to support my campaign, I can only do this with your help.

Thank you!

Dear police,

Please don’t try to tell me where I can and cannot be.

That’s a guarantee I will go where you don’t want me because I don’t like you trying to infringe upon my rights.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

This police visit, 9 minutes earlier, was great!

I suspect a man walking by, wearing a progress pride flag t-shirt, must have called 911 upon seeing me.

These types want to defund the police but call them when they see a sign they don’t like.

No doubt it was this guy wasting police resources.

We won!

Together with @X, we just defeated Australia’s government in a huge victory for free speech!

The eSafety Commissioner’s effort to censor me and to demand that X complies has failed. This sets an important precedent.

Congratulations, Australia! 🇦🇺

From the Deputy President of the Tribunal in his ruling:

“The applications before this tribunal have their origin in a social media post insulting Teddy Cook, a transgender man. The post, which among other things refers to Teddy Cook as a woman, has been blocked in Australia as a result of action by the online safety regulator.

“The person who posted the material and the platform on which it was posted have both challenged the decision of the regulator to issue a removal notice. The broad question to be answered is whether the post meets the statutory definition of cyber-abuse material targeted at an Australian adult.

“The more focussed question is whether I can be satisfied that the necessary intention to cause serious harm to the subject of the post has been established. Based on the evidence before me, I am not satisfied that it has. Consequently, the decision of the eSafety Commissioner to issue a removal notice is set aside.”

You know what this means, Australia. You are perfectly free to call a man a man and a woman a woman. It’s not misgendering, and it’s not cyber-abuse.

The only people misgendering are the ones who play along with the cult of gender.

There are two sexes, zero genders, and infinite personalities.

I’ll add a link to the entire ruling soon. It’s truly a devastating blow for the @eSafetyOffice.

All of their experts were dismissed as unconvincing and contradictory. In her worst dreams, the eSafety Commissioner could not have expected such a total defeat.

More importantly, this ruling provides a safe roadmap for free speech in Australia, when that speech intends to genuinely debate matters.

With a shoestring budget, we went up against the inexhaustible resources of the government and won. Why? Because we have truth on our side, and all they have is authoritarianism and lies.

Case Summary

Chris Elston, known as Billboard Chris, a Canadian father of two, took to “X” (formerly Twitter) on 28th February 2024 to share a Daily Mail article titled “Kinky secrets of a UN trans expert REVEALED”.

The article, and accompanying tweet, criticised the suitability of transgender activist Teddy Cook to be appointed to a World Health Organization “panel of experts” set to advise on global transgender policy.

Cook complained about the post to Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, who requested that “X” remove the content. The social media platform owned by free speech advocate Elon Musk initially refused, but following a subsequent formal removal order from the Commission, later geo-blocked the content in Australia. X has since also filed an appeal against the order at the Administrative Appeals Tribunal in Melbourne.

Billboard Chris, with the support of @ADFIntl and the Australian Human Rights Law Alliance, and alongside Elon Musk’s “X”, is appealing the violation of his right to peacefully share his convictions.

The case was heard in Melbourne for five days on the week of March 31st 2025.

“It is vital we challenge the global spread of censorship. We’re used to hearing about governments punishing citizens for their ‘wrong’ speech in parts of the world where strict blasphemy laws are still enforced – but now, from Australia, to Mexico, to Finland, we see Western governments increasingly take authoritarian steps to shut down views they don’t like, often by branding them as “offensive”, “hateful”, or “misinformation.”

“In a free society, ideas should be challenged with ideas, not state censorship. We’re proud to stand with Billboard Chris – and others around the world punished for expressing their peaceful views – in defending the right to live and speak the truth,” commented Robert Clarke, Director of Advocacy for ADF International, who is serving as part of Billboard Chris’s legal team.

The Sydney Morning Herald has done an excellent job reporting on my censorship fight with Australia’s government!

Not just my fight — @elonmusk’s and the Trump administration’s, as well.

It was a very bad idea to censor me.

“In March, in a drab hearing room of the Administrative Review Tribunal in Melbourne, lawyers spent five days going back and forth about a post on social media platform X from a Canadian anti-trans activist and whether it should have been removed from the internet.

“Now, a year after that post was published, the case has caught the attention of the Trump administration, which is accusing Australia – among other countries – of coercing American technology companies into egregious censorship.

“With the White House warning that it is out to enforce free speech around the world, the matter has the potential to creep into high-stakes trade talks between the United States and the re-elected Albanese government.”

Article continues in the thread.👇🏼🧵

“The administration has been really straightforward,” David Inserra, a fellow at the Cato Institute, a free market Washington think tank, says. “They view these types of actions as assaults on American competitiveness.”

What happened?

Chris Elston describes himself as a father of two girls who “decided to take a stand against gender ideology”. In practice, that means regularly touring the streets of North America – and the world – with billboards that say: “Children cannot consent to puberty blockers”.

It also means publishing a constant stream of anti-transgender material on social media, where he is known as Billboard Chris. Elston rejects the “anti-trans” label. “I cannot be anti something that doesn’t exist,” he says. “I am pro-child.”

In late February 2024, Elston read a Daily Mailarticle about Teddy Cook, an Australian trans man and activist who was then the community health director at NSW charity ACON, which advocates for the LGBTQ+ community and on HIV/AIDS. The article purported to reveal Cook’s “kinky track record” and questioned his appointment to a World Health Organisation advisory body on transgender issues.

Elston posted a link to the article on X, the Elon Musk-owned platform formerly called Twitter. “This woman (yes, she’s female) is part of a panel of 20 ‘experts’ hired by the @WHO to draft their policy on caring for ‘trans people’,” Elston wrote, before questioning Cook’s suitability for the appointment.

Cook complained to Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, and on March 22 last year, a delegate ordered X to remove the post. A letter from the delegate to X said the post deliberately misgendered Cook, invalidated and mocked his gender identity, was offensive and constituted cyberabuse. If X failed to remove the post, it was liable for a $782,500 fine.

The platform complied by geo-blocking the post in Australia, although it is still available elsewhere, including in the United States. Musk’s company also appealed to the Administrative Review Tribunal, as did Elston, leading to the hearing that was held in March.
