Buried in the French language press a telling incident of transgender activist violence against Canada’s National Broadcaster for daring to tell the truth about irreversible puberty blockers and surgical child mutilation (aka Gender Affirming Care).
This is a translation from the LA PRESS website –
“An investigation was opened by Montreal police into acts of vandalism committed on the premises of Radio-Canada in Montreal earlier last week.
Gestures claimed online as a response to the recent broadcast of a report by the program Investigation into gender transition therapies among minors.
At 2:20 a.m. on March 13, a call was made to 911 concerning misdeeds committed at the building of a “media company” in the Ville-Marie borough, the Ville-Marie police department confirmed. of Montreal (SPVM). “Upon their arrival on the scene, the police noticed that there were broken windows at one of the entrances to the building,” explains a spokesperson for the police force, Caroline Chèvrefils. According to the first information available, “one or more suspects” caused this damage before fleeing, she adds.
The investigation is still ongoing and no arrests have been made at this time. The SPVM intends to view images from surveillance cameras that captured the scene. The state-owned company confirmed on Saturday that it had been the target of these acts of vandalism. “Suspects actually damaged three windows in our building and then fled,” said its spokesperson, Marc Pichette. This is an unfortunate act of vandalism.
» Claimed online On Friday, an anonymous press release was published on the Montréal Contre-information website, a platform used by anarchist activists to claim their actions. The text suggests that these acts of vandalism are intended as a response to the recent broadcast of a report on the program Enquête sur les therapies de transition de sexe. Broadcast on February 29, the report in question, entitled Trans express, focuses on the issue of adolescents who wish to change their gender and the fact that the Quebec health system “responds very quickly to their requests for medical transition by prescribing blockers, testosterone and mastectomies.” “Is it normal for a 14 year old girl to get a prescription for testosterone within minutes? »,
We can read in the description of the investigation, on the show’s website. However, the text published on Montréal Counter-information accuses the state corporation of “using its large platform to amplify transphobic speeches close to those of the extreme right”. “This report represents an ideological shift which serves to legitimize the transphobic demands of the far right, which will fuel violence against trans communities, which are currently increasingly targeted,” continues the text, the authors of which remain unknown.”
Hmm…
A quote directly contradicting the THIS NEVER HAPPENS narrative bullshit we constantly hear from the activist Left:
“On January 30, 14-year-old Sachay, alone, comes to a private chic clinic for his medical appointment. The girl identifies herself as transgender and, to initiate her transition to the other sex, she needs a prescription of male hormones, testosterone. It has not been referred by any doctor, psychologist or therapist.
In this way, it hopes to avoid the long waiting list of public clinics.
In less than three bminutes, Sacha describes to the doctor who receives her her tortuous relationship with her body, which she claims to hate from the age of 12. Having been diagnosed with an eating disorder in doubt, Sacha is convinced to be transgender after watching a video of a transgender young man on the Internet. He also realized “that he was not in the right body” after being diagnosed with an eating disorder.
After asking the girl if she had the support of her parents, the doctor goes on: “Do you consider any surgeries in the future?” Sacha doesn’t grab it right away: “Surgery… like?” “Mastectomy, remove the chest”, says the family doctor, before giving him the coordinates of the Montreal clinic where these operations are carried out.
When injected in the long term, the testosterone she wishes to obtain from the doctor may make a woman infertile. The possibility of a future pregnancy is raised in one question: “I understand that it is a little far away for you, at 14 years of age … Fertility, is it something you want to keep before you start?”, the doctor says. “Uh… no. I always knew I didn’t want a child”,” replied Sacha. “OK,” chained the general practitioner.
After nine minutes of consultation, Sacha gets his prescription: 30 mg testosterone to be injected once a week.”
17 minute Gender Assessments by ‘qualified doctors’ following the feelings based WPATH guidlines:
“Contacted by our team, the doctor says he adheres to the guidelines of WPATH, the international grouping of transgender health professionals. The body recommends a complete physical, psychological and social assessment before starting the medical transition of an adolescent.”
The suicide coercion ploy spelled out:
“This includes an Ontario study that transgender people in transition are 27 times more likely to commit suicide than those who have completed their transition. Or, this statistic on the probabilities of suicide attempt that would increase by 93% among transgender youth “without strong parental support”.
For the former holder of the Research Chair on trans youth and their families, this is a figure that comes to the fore. “Parental support is the number one protective factor among trans youth”, argues Annie Pullen Sansfaçon.
But other researchers are protesting against the use of these statistics among parents of transgender children. “It is ethically irresponsible to present these suicide statistics to parents”, “reacts” Samuel Veissière, an anthropologist for medicine and associate professor of psychology at UQAM. “When studying young people in gender questioning showing very high rates of suicidality and compared to other young people referred to in mental health, we talk about about the same rates.”
“This kind of message, according to Samuel Veissière, is tantamount to a form of coercion to impose the affirmative model on parents.”
Nor would there be any evidence that the take of blockers would soothe these young people with black ideas, psychiatrist Michael Landen continues. “There is no evidence that puberty blockers or hormones of the other sex reduce the suicide rate. None”, says the doctor and researcher at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden.”
Way to go Radio Canada!
The Radio Canada investigation has inspired other activists to post their fact free rebuttable hit pieces online. See how many false assertions you can spot along with the outright lies here.
This is big folks. The WPATH files show exactly how unscientific gender medicine is. It is a travesty that a ‘professional association’ could be so irresponsible. But see for yourself.
The only show to watch during ‘awards season’.
The first of the manipulations, and the center of how it works, is the collectivization of the “LGBTQ2 community.”
This thing does not exist meaningfully. It’s not even a genuine coalition. Gay people, and so on, exist, but that acronym represents nothing but a lie.
However they spell the acronym, its purpose is to collectivize all of the people in certain descriptive demographics and to allow the radicals to speak for their entirety, making it appear like many “marginalized” people support Woke stuff when actually only few do.
That is, Queer Activism is being done in the names of a broad pseudo-coalition “community” denoted by the acronym, even though most individuals in that “community” aren’t represented by it and may even reject it outright. Queer Activists hide behind a synthetic coalition.
It bears repeating that throughout the Queer literature, it is stressed and stressed again that “Queer” is an oppositional political stance, not an identity at all. That proves, outside of the obvious rejection by people falsely claimed by the “community,” that it’s fake.
It also proves that the Queer Activists KNOW the “LGBTQ2 community” is an artificial construction that they’re manipulating to gain empathy and support they don’t deserve. Let that sink in. They KNOW it. They’re DOING IT ON PURPOSE, WILLFULLY. So here is the Liberal Party.
So this is the first huge manipulation here: making people believe in a broad “LGBTQ2 community” that doesn’t exist except as a manipulative pseudo-coalition that speaks for and hides behind sexual minorities so it can do destructive oppositional Queer Activism in its name.
The second huge manipulation here is the claim that anything resisting Queer Activism “harms” this “community.” First of all, no it doesn’t. It just doesn’t. Nobody is being “harmed” at all. That claim is the wail of a histrionic narcissist not getting his way.
Second of all, the community itself can’t be “harmed,” even if it existed (remember, it’s a fake pseudo-coalition ginned into existence by Queer Activists to hide behind). Only individuals can be harmed, and they could be treated individually rather than collectively if harmed.
This part of the manipulation twists the ethos but not the logic of civil rights into its inverse. The logic of civil rights is that no INDIVIDUAL should be harmed through discriminatory law or policy. It has nothing to do with groups or their rights, but this inverts that logic.
People have been led to think civil rights is about protecting groups (“protected classes”) when in reality “protected classes” refers to classifications under which all individuals are protected against discriminatory activity. Race, not specific races, is protected this way.
The third part of the manipulation is in the idea of “harm” itself. For Queer Theorists, not getting their way is “hate” and “harm.” They paint a picture of fringe cases where something bad happens as though they’re indicative of the population. They’re not.
They’re trying to claim that all members of a fictitious “community” are “harmed” so they can emotionally blackmail people into supporting radical agendas from within (Communist) Queer Theory, when in fact a few individuals have problems blamed on a system, rightly or wrongly.Their objective is to provide universal solutions that might be merited in a small number of individual cases by claiming “the community is harmed.” This is akin to doing universal screenings or treatments in medicine, which is strongly discouraged for good reasons.
Doing universal cancer screenings, for example, produces far more false positives than real positives and puts people into fear and onto courses of treatment that actually harm them when they don’t need them. This “community” stuff treats the whole community for a few bad cases.
It’s malpractice justified through collectivist empathy. The remedy is to install the praxis of Queer Activism everywhere so the few special cases don’t get missed and “harmed,” but Queer Activism harms everyone, and what you might hope it would be harms most people.
The reason they think this way is because Queer Theory posits that our true, essential nature is queer. Everybody is queer. It’s who we really are, and we have to be led BACK into realizing it because it’s socialized out of us by cisheteronormative society.
What this actually reveals about Queer Theory is that it’s a Gnostic or Hermetic cult (both, really). Our true nature is obscured from us, and we have to be led to remember it by escaping the evil forces obscuring it from us. We’re all “spiritually” queer but don’t realize it.
Since Rousseau and Marx, “spiritually” has meant collectively in society. Marxism is the belief that our true spiritual nature is “social(ist),” and we have to be re-socialized into realizing who we really are: a social species with the power to create itself and our world.
Queer Theory just posits that we’re all queer (abnormal and intrinsically opposed to limitations of normalcy), but we’ve been socialized to be “normal” instead. So denying Queer Activist praxis to ALL kids (and all people) “harms” them spiritually. That’s what they really mean.
We don’t have to put up with this emotional blackmail anymore, nor do we have to accept that a fringe of radical activists with demonstrable cult views gets to present itself as the “true” voice of a broad coalition that it holds out as tokens for empathy and support.
This is a full repost of Amy Eileen Hamm’s article from the New West Times.
It is important that news like this gets proper exposure and to illustrate how the MSM is not doing its job. Plus it gets it on Facebook around the stupid news censorship in Canada.
By now, every Canadian has heard the news out of Alberta. Although depending where you get your news, you’ve either heard that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has announced a forthcoming genocide camp for LGBT youth or—for those who’ve not lost their grip on reality—you’ve heard that Smith is taking an evidence-based stance on transgender healthcare for minors, protecting female athletes in sports, and ensuring parents have the right to safeguard the well-being and best interests of their children.
There will be no more puberty blockers or cross sex hormones for children under 16. No gender surgeries—such as double mastectomies or penile inversions—for minors under 18. No more teachers changing under-16 students’ names or pronouns without parental permission. No more leaving parents in the dark about gender-identity school lessons. Parents can continue to opt their children out. For female athletes, they will have sports leagues of their own: no males can identify their way in.
Smith is bringing safety, fairness, parental rights, and reason back to her province. She is bringing Albertans exactly what the majority of Canadians support, as per a recent Angus Reid poll that shows parents expect to be notified if their kids suddenly identify as transgender at school. (What loving parent wouldn’t want to be?) Similarly, a 2021 poll reveals that Canadians want sports segregated by sex, not gender self-identification.
There’s no denying that Smith’s new legislation is reflective of majority Canadian sentiment. So naturally, Canada’s activists and hard left, plus their sycophant Liberal and NDP bootlickers—fringe minority that they are—had a Chernobyl-level nuclear meltdown, with a fallout zone well beyond Alberta’s borders.
Notably, our national broadcaster trotted out vile misogynist Fae Johnstone, slapped an “expert” label on the transgender-identified male, and hit “publish” on another gaslighting piece of state propaganda. They quoted Johnstone on Smith’s new rules: “This is interfering ideologically in the provision of medically necessary healthcare for trans and gender diverse young people.” He also claimed the new legislation “flies in the face of establishing medical best practice.”
All of what Johnstone said is demonstrably—and infuriatingly—false. The only ideology at play is his. Gender “affirming” healthcare for minors is being globally outed as the medical scandal that it is, with numerous Scandinavian and European countries implementing restrictions or bans on the treatment of children. The World Health Organization just released trans care guidelines that do not include standards for youth or minors; they cite a lack of evidence to support childhood transition guidelines.
Persons like Fae Johnstone are desperate to bury the truth. When not lying via our government-funded media platform, Johnstone can be found trolling and threatening women with differing political opinions online. “I actually do want a political environment in which TERFs are so vilified they don’t dare speak their views publicly,” he once wrote. Because if you can’t beat them, shut them down.
And then there’s Canada’s Special Advisor to the Prime Minister on LGBTQ2 issues, Randy Boissonnault, who took the good news from Alberta particularly poorly. In a presser, the man insisted that joining your school’s chess club or debate team is no different than changing your gender and going on Lupron, the puberty-blocking drug used off-label for trans kids and also to castrate sex offenders.
“Nobody calls your parents when you join the debate team. But now, if somebody thinks you’re questioning or queer, they’re gonna tell the teacher and the teacher’s gonna call the parents,” said Boissonnault. “This is our NATO moment as an LGBTQ community. An attack on one of our communities is an attack on us all.” Boissonnault, a gay man, seems blissfully unaware that childhood medical transition is disproportionately inflicted upon gender-confused kids who, if left alone to go through puberty, would simply end up gay. What Canada is doing to “trans” kids, in many cases, is “transing the gay away”; it’s a modern form of conversion therapy. It must stop. We are an international embarrassment on several fronts, most appallingly so for ignoring the global demise of gender ideology and destroying the bodies and minds of untold numbers of vulnerable children.
In response to Premier Smith, legal group Egale Canada has called her proposed legislation “unconstitutional” and claims they will launch a court challenge. It’s possible that the federal government will, too. Minister Boissonnault is promoting a rally to protest Smith’s proposed changes at the Edmonton Legislature this weekend.
Premier Smith is not backing down. Good for her. Canada needs an enormous dose of reality, and our petulant gender activists need their tantrums to go ignored. Let them stamp and shout and lie—the adults in the country are finally having a conversation.
