Wes Streeting your recent article pinkwashing the harm the UK government causes trans youth was an unseemly farce. Except that transphobic oppression on TERF Island is just is not funny.

More than a million Canadian families include transgender loved ones. So why are Canadian conservatives such as Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and OneBC’s chief of staff and leader pushing anti-trans rhetoric? Imported fear campaigns endanger rights and care. They put us all at risk.

UK ruling narrows “sex” definition, risking trans rights. Yet human rights law demands inclusion, not exclusion. read how this matters…

By Morgane Oger | April 2025 Across the globe, an old lie is resurfacing: that inclusion threatens society. This fear feeds "replacement theory"—the baseless notion that elevating marginalized people harms the majority. It frames progress as a zero-sum loss for culture and identity. The far-right fuels fears trying to win votes using this narrative to […]

Based on a true story… A mob descends on a school, outraged a district anti-bullying coordinator is reading a kids book in the classroom. The mob targets the teacher’s identity, religion, or even their message of inclusion and demands their removal "to protect children" from the social contagion the teacher represents to them. The school […]

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR), is marked every 20 November. exists to honor the memory of transgender and gender-diverse individuals who have lost their lives due to anti-transgender violence.

An anti-Trans bill targeting Trans women and girls failed spectacularly in the BC Legislature in May 2024. Ironically called "Fairness in Women’s and Girls’ Sports Act", it was voted down 51-27 at first reading in the BC Legislature, a fate that’s a rarity in BC politics and quite the insult. The immediate rejection of the BC […]

Gender identity or expression was finally added to Canada’s human rights law in 2017 after decades of legal battles and advocacy. We find ourselves once again facing a growing anti-trans campaign in Canada this week. It's time for everyone to please lend a hand…again. I am a transgender mom raising two teenagers in Vancouver while […]

I am mindful Vancouver City Council members must be facing quite a bit of push-back from Vancouver Rape Relief (VRR) and their supporters as a result of today's finance committee vote on the staff recommendation to cancel funding of their outreach and education program. On February 26, the City of Vancouver's Standing Committee on City […]

In 2019, the City renewed their funding with the warning that the organization's practices did not comply with eligibility criteria for program funding by the City of Vancouver. The city informed Vancouver Rape Relief that unless the organization took measures to meet the city's inclusion criteria for funding, 2020 funding would be denied. Next week, […]

On September 29, 2019, Self-identified feminist journalist Meghan Murphy gave a talk about her feelings regarding transgender women and feminism.

In recent months UBC asked to feature me as a success story for their engineering program. I am troubled by their conduct regarding anti-trandgender hatred on campus and I can not let UBC use my name as long as it cultivates hatred against marginalized communities or helps others do so.

On June 12 2016, Orlando's Pulse Nightclub was the scene of a massacre targeting the LGBTQ community. We must stand together to fight off the cultivation of hateful impuses before they become murderous action.

A 2006 study on transgender people showed that less than 1% of transgender people regret their decision and detransition. Another, more recent longitudinal study spanning 50 years from the 1960s to its recent publishing date found a 2.2% de-transition rate. ..so why the consistent messaging in politics and social media that over 80% of kids […]

Parents: "Jenn Smith has taken it upon himself…to organize public speaking events, where he goes from one community to the next, sharing his presentation to the public. The content of his presentation is misinformation, debunked pseudo-science, conspiracy theories, and a few of his own personal life experiences. Those of us who have LGBTQ2+ children and families consider his presentation dangerous because it incites hate, targeted at our kids and our families."

This is a message to the social conservative fringe of Canada. We all have the same rights, the same hopes, and the same fears. We are, in facts so much alike.

No matter who they are or what they believe, people who incite discrimination on prohibited grounds are inciting others to break the law. This be stopped from doing it in a rented space.

When you claim denying a publicly-available service for women to trans women is justified or even legal in Canada you are lying.

It's not the name calling that gets anti-transgender activists in trouble, it's the harassment. It's the incitement of hatred. It's the acts of prohibited discrimination.

Originally posted on Secret Feminist Agenda: Content warning for discussions of sexual assault and transphobia. Like so many good things, this episode started one way and ended up another. I invited Clayre to chat about singing, and we ended up talking about community and harm and silence and what we do (or don't do) to feel…

While BC was focusing on our October 20 local elections, the news broke in the US that the Trump administration is seeking to define transgender people out of existence by defining sex as binary and immutable. This is not a good thing. In fact, it is deeply troubling. A recent New York Times article describes the contents […]

A man has been wandering the streets of Vancouver since 6 October distributing flyers. There's no place for what he is writing and no excuse for him to be putting such homophobic and transphobic rants to paper and imposing them on innocent victims. First, I'd like to start by taking a moment to thank everybody […]

Birds of a feather are meeting up in Victoria rallies this weekend to oppose women having a right to access abortion and to force LGBTQ2+ kids back into the closet. If it was another month, I would be in Victoria addressing this hot mess from the 1950s that has no place in our inclusive and […]

Tonight I was at the Chilliwack Board of Education's trustee meeting to ask a question seeking clarification about the individual personal commitment of each trustee to uphold the law of British Columbia.
