Premier Higgs has indicated that the only way this harmful policy will be reversed is if we take him to court. So, that’s what we’re doing.

THERE’S A NATIONAL ANTI-2SLGBTQIA+ PROTEST PLANNED FOR SEPTEMBER 20TH: What we know, and how we can fight this hate. 🧵

[@booksandtea123.bsky.social @booksandtea123]

@Gailey99 Hi, please retweet my infographic about it. I have more information about how to participate in counter protests. https://t.co/63whCGuf5B

Wow! But, yay! 👏👏👏

[Dr. Kristopher Wells @KristopherWells]

I don’t see pronouns anywhere on this list of 10 ten concerns of Canadians.

We need politicians to focus on real issues, not scapegoating vulnerable children for political means. #cdnpoli

[Dr. Kristopher Wells @KristopherWells]

Can you imagine the ineptitude it takes to actually make a bad policy worse and even more blatantly discriminatory!? #cdnpoli #Policy713

[Gail Costello (She/Her) 🇨🇦🐾🌳 @Gailey99]

School districts and teachers are on the right side of history. #donoharm #Policy713 #standupforkids

Thank you to The New Brunswick Medical Society @nb_docs for your support of #Policy713 .Your expert advise and input to the Advocate’s review is critical. 🏳️‍⚧️👏#donoharm #protecttranskids

[Gail Costello (She/Her) 🇨🇦🐾🌳 @Gailey99]

Thank you to @cancivlib for this important legal challenge. The New Brunswick government can not create policy that violates anyone’s human rights or the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. They also can not make any of their employees violate these laws. 🏳️‍⚧️

Zack and I are in today’s @TorontoStar because my biggest fear-US-style anti-trans laws coming to Canada-is coming true. https://t.co/lhmKn8Vl78

Here’s how we can support the Trans community:

[Laurel Collins @Laurel_BC]

The rising hate directed at trans people is terrifying, and Conservative leaders are stoking this hate with dangerous discriminatory policies.

We need to better support trans & gender-diverse people. ���️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Here are 29 concrete things we're fighting for: 🧵
