Just for fun, here is a thread of clips from the Justice Committee's meeting today (Dec. 3, 2020) on Bill C-6. This bill is controversial because it could criminalize/ban efforts to discourage young children from transitioning (e.g. taking a watchful waiting approach).

Here is Committee Chair Iqra Khalid

Witness Erika Muse says that autogynephilia (research of @BlanchardPhD) and rapid-onset gender dysphoria (research of @LisaLittman1) are "conversion therapy ideas"? These are legitimate academic concepts.

Liberal MP Ramesh Sangha "misgenders" Erika Muse (the witness above)

Cisnormativity and heteronormativity came from colonizers and residential schools (?)

NDP MP Randall Garrison, classy as always. He thanks the two witnesses he agrees with, and snubs the other two witnesses from the Association for Reformed Political Action (a Christian group). (In 2019 I testified for the study on online hate, and Garrison tried to filibuster)

Ok that's enough for now. Always nice to see what's happening in the House of Commons.
