In the wake of the Obama Administration’s effort to make U.S. toilets available to all those whose gender identity is different from their biological identity, Justin Trudeau, Canada’s Prime Minister is planning to push through legislation to give “full protection,” to transgender people. He plans to change the existing rules outlawing so-called “discrimination.”
Trudeau announced the new legislation on May 17, the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia. “Similar legislation has been proposed repeatedly over more than a decade and has twice been approved by the country’s House of Commons, but has been held up in the Senate.”
Like in America, critics in Canada have argued that rights protections for transgender people could put children at risk from sexual predators.
Trudeau said the bill will “ensure the full protection of transgender people… “We must continue to demand true equality,” the Prime Minister said.
“We must carry on the legacy of those who fought for justice by being bold and ambitious in our actions.”
“And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.” Genesis 19:9
