On September 1, Alberta’s Fairness and Safety in Sport Act came into force, marking a decisive step in a global debate over equity in athletics. The law—formerly Bill 29—requires athletes aged 12 and older to compete in categories aligned with their sex as recorded at birth. Out-of-province visitors remain exempt, and younger children are unaffected. The aim is not blanket exclusion, but to preserve a level playing field for female competitors.
The rationale rests on clear evidence: even after hormone therapy, biological males often retain advantages in strength, speed, and endurance. A 2021 study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that transgender women maintained a measurable edge in running times even after two years of testosterone suppression. High-profile cases—from swimmer Lia Thomas in the NCAA to weightlifter Laurel Hubbard at the Olympics—have underscored how even rare instances can shape competition outcomes and displace female athletes.
Opposition has been swift. Groups like Egale and Skipping Stone argue the Act is discriminatory, casting it as a rollback of human rights protections. Their concern is not trivial: trans youth already face higher rates of marginalization, and exclusion from sport can exacerbate social isolation. For activists, the law sends a stigmatizing signal that identity is secondary to biology, undermining inclusion.
But here the clash of principles becomes unavoidable. Protecting the integrity of women’s sports means acknowledging physiological differences that identity alone cannot erase. Alberta’s law draws that boundary: co-ed and male divisions remain open to all, while female categories are safeguarded for those born female. Critics frame this as erasure; supporters see it as necessary equity.
The deeper problem lies in public discourse. Too often, debate polarizes into caricatures—claims of “rights apocalypse” on one side, or blanket dismissal of trans athletes on the other. Alberta’s legislation is imperfect but pragmatic: it carves out space for participation without sacrificing fairness. Future court challenges will test whether the balance holds, but the principle is clear. True progress in sport must protect all athletes’ opportunities, not just the loudest voices in the debate.
It’s absolutely infuriating to see what’s happening in Canada with our prison policies—allowing male rapists into female prisons just because they claim to identify as women. This isn’t about being progressive; it’s about throwing common sense and safety out the window. Women in prison are already some of the most vulnerable people in society, and now they’re being forced to share space with men who have a documented history of sexual violence. It’s a betrayal of basic decency, and the fact that this is even up for debate shows how far down the rabbit hole of ideology we’ve gone.
The government’s justification—rooted in laws like Bill C-16 and Correctional Service Canada directives—pretends this is about human rights, but it’s a sham. These policies don’t protect anyone; they enable predators to exploit the system. There are countless stories of women in these facilities feeling terrorized, knowing they’re locked in with men who’ve committed heinous acts against other women. And when they speak up, they’re dismissed as bigots or punished with parole denials. It’s a sick twist of irony that the same system claiming to champion rights is stripping these women of their safety and dignity.
What’s worse is the spineless refusal to admit this is a problem. Instead of protecting female inmates, Canada’s leaders double down, hiding behind vague notions of inclusivity while ignoring the real-world consequences. How many assaults, how much trauma, will it take before they wake up? This isn’t about denying anyone’s identity—it’s about acknowledging biology and the risks it poses in a confined setting. Letting male rapists into women’s prisons isn’t justice; it’s reckless, infuriating, and a slap in the face to every woman who deserves better.
Do a pulse check with your leftist friends – see if they understand what is going on in terms of women’s right’s and safety vis a vis transgender ideology.
Okay, lady followers. I’m taking a cue from @NancyMace :
. I do not like discussing any of my past on a public forum, but I think it is important for people (men) to understand how prevalent it is that almost all of us have experienced some sort of harm at the hands of men in our lives so that the “be kind” brigade understand – and I am a woman, very happily married to a lovely man for the last 33 years. But, THIS is why we are so adamant about keeping creepy, predatory men out of our spaces.
You don’t have to detail what happened to you, but simply hit the “like” button if you know what we are talking about. Here are (just a few) of mine: Junior High: Was called into the counselor’s office because, as a “high achiever,” I was just not “acting like myself.” When I explained that a boy had been “pushing” me to “do stuff” (I was very inexperienced) the counselor physically pulled me around his desk to “show” me what I “should” do. I freaked out and ran out of his office. He continued to try to pull me out of class, and stalked me for four years afterwards.
In HS, I was a cross country runner and taught high impact aerobics at night to make money for gas and lunch. I ended up with torn cartilage in my rib cage from “overwork”. Manger at my gym (employer) sent me to a physical therapist. The PT proceeded to sexually assault me, all while claiming it was “therapy.” I was 16. I was alone, in a “therapist’s” office. He was well over 6 feet, I was 5 foot, 100 pounds. I have felt guilty my whole life that I didn’t stop it.
I was an adult lawyer working for the legislature. Adult physician, head of a prominent medical school, sitting next to me on a private plane tells me he wished he was my “gynecologist,” so that he could “probe” me. Point of this list, and there are more stories, is that EVERY woman has them. Please stop minimizing our fears about men suddenly invading our safe spaces just because they have decided they “are women”. Our. Fears. Are. Real. #HoldTheLine
The London Museum in London Ontario Canada has erased April Hutchinson from the exhibit that she was featured in and also helped to set up. What was this woman’s crime? She advocates on her own time that her sport should be segregated by sex. That is, she should not have to compete against men who happen to ‘identify’ as women. April is being punished and erased because she wants a fair playing field for those who participate in the sport of female power-lifting.
More stories are coming out everyday about women being excluded, erased, and shamed for want to protect and preserve their rights, spaces, and safety in Canadian society.
So, my fellow No Space for Hate’ people – it is way past time to dig past the hollow slogans you support and actually see the result of your, what I can only term as ‘low information’ stance. There is a serious conflict going on right now in society between females and a small vocal minority of men who identify as women. The males in dresses are erasing females from society and as a distinct class. This trend must be reversed and female rights and reality must be preserved.
I spent a fair amount of time poking fun at the US right-wing here on DWR. But as of late is that very same right wing that is standing up and fighting for the rights, boundaries, and safety of women. The noisy befuddled activist Left has taken over the discourse on the Left and as result it has turned into utter identitarian hogwash.
The Left I knew was about promoting the interests of the working class and helping people get to a place economically and socially where they could contribute to society and have a reasonable life within the bounds of our Western values. Now? It is intersectionality 24/7 in a competition to see is the most oppressed and who is best at fracturing society into warring factions bent on dismantling the very system that lets them spout their egregious bullshite.
So, you have to look to whomever has the most reasonable and fact based ideas – it is how we actually progress as a nation.
The forced birth brigade has won a major victory against women and their rights with the repeal of Roe vs Wade. Surprisingly much of the woke world has magically remembered what a woman is and how sex based oppression works in our society. Please also note identifying as a man and demanding your reproductive healthcare isn’t a viable strategy because, as based feminist women have been saying since the beginning, it is impossible to ‘identify’ into or out of your sex class.
Of course, when it comes to making the rules, progressive men think that it is completely okay to put male sex offenders in female prisons because of male gender feelings. It is heartbreaking, yet unsurprising, to see how little male politicians and their progressive allies value women and their safety.
It all comes down to the safety of women in society. Women will get abortions regardless of their legality – now the accessible safe options will be removed for many women in the US. Women will die because of lack of access to reproductive healthcare.
What will the progressive side do about this tragedy? Probably close to fuck all because they cannot even define what a woman is. The mainstream Left dropped the ball, embracing divisively specious gender ideology instead of defending the rights, boundaries, and spaces of females in society. So instead of fighting against the reactionary Right we had to fight viscous internecine battles over intrinsically stupid issues like gender self identification. Way to go our team!
Perhaps it is a clarifying moment though where women can plainly see the issues that face them and choose to fight for and defend their place in society. Those who want to embrace the post modern queer theory bullshite can go off to their woolly debates and whinge-circles of who is in the most oppressed. With the idiot chaff intersectionally faffing about, the adult women and men in the room can get down to the real work of restoring female autonomy and boundaries in our society.
Remember when the ACLU was an organization that fought for rights and justice in American society? Please put that outdated notion straight into the bin. The ACLU has been ideologically captured and now actively fights against the rights and safety of women in American society, specifically American women in prison who do not want to share their confines with male bodied people. But no, female safety and boundaries must be sacrificed on the alter of transgender ideology because male gender feelings must take precedent of the physical safety of females.
“One-third of the requests for transfer from men’s prisons to women’s prisons include an inmate who had been convicted of a sex offense,” Adams says, noting that the figures are similarly stark in the federal prison system, where 48% of trans-identified male inmates were imprisoned on a sex offense.
“Ultimately what we are dealing with is a complete denial of reality,” Adams says, “The ACLU along with every person on this planet knows what men and women are, and what makes them different. Their denial of this fact in order to validate the identities of male offenders is embarrassing.”
WoLF is expected to file their response to the ACLU’s intervention by May 31.
