@wopizza@cityofcalgary Here's a quick primer, but anyone of any political affiliation - left and right - can quickly connect the dots on what's happened to women's safe spaces in #Canada.
1/@wopizza@cityofcalgary Globally, the Yogyakarta Principles – having not been accepted by the UN States – is now being pushed onto Western nations. The definition of Gender Identity in the YP is quite similar to what you’re seeing on the Calgary procedure.
@ctvottawa The hijacking that occurred on #IWD2023 showed #canpoli & funded orgs shamelessly falling over themselves to centre males. They exposed themselves as having done nothing of significance to address real issues affecting women #OnTheBasisOfSex, like repro rights, #femicide, #VAW.
@ctvottawa#Canadians are told ‘there’s no gender equality without trans women’, but no one can back up the rhetoric with substance. No one can answer the simple inquiring question, Why?
Why are female sex-based rights & protections as enshrined in the @CanadianCharter being held hostage?
