Poilievre says female spaces should be exclusively for females, 'not for biological males'

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre agrees with restricting trans women from female sports categories and accessing “women-only” spaces.

Finally some common sense in all this lunacy.

So he agrees, but (as per the article) won’t commit to legislation and acknowledges that most of those rules aren’t set by the federal government…

I'm pretty sure that once trudeau drops the writ we'll see a fleshed out platform, with hardened commitments from PP. Only an idiot would give their battle plan to trudeau, for him to steal/condemn before the election is called.

So, small government means compulsory proof of ID to watch porn online? Neat.

Hard to tell if you're for or against that.

From the article:

While Poilievre’s positions on trans issues are drawing criticism, public opinion surveys suggest that a wide margin of Canadians are on board with those policies.

A recent Postmedia-Leger poll found that nearly half of Canadians support the idea of banning gender reassignment surgery and puberty blockers for minors, while more than two-thirds agree that transgender women should not be allowed to compete in female sports categories.

Canadians seem to agree with CPC's stance on this whole issue.

I wonder how the topic came up in the Kitchener press conference, was it a question from the media?

I mean, that also means they'll have to hire reviewers to confirm what is and is not porn.

"Department of Canadian Heritage is hiring bilingual Erotica Assessment Team Management Ensigns to ensure compliance with new Federal legislation. Are you pornography connaisseur? Join the Government as an EAT-ME expert."

No worries. GC Strategies, a small company in Ottawa will handle that. for a reasonable fee.

Could be as simple as "Are you human" verification (simpler, if identifying all pictures with an "X" in them isn't part of the test). "Are you 18" (or whatever age is required). If digital ID and more intrusive measures aren't on the table, I can't imagine anything more sophisticated.

Meh, got to hit the over 18 box on a lot of firearms supply sites already. Perhaps, if someone lies and something happens, they should charge the parents for not supervising their child or ensuring the child locks are set on the computer. When my daughter got her first phone, I locked a lot of stuff out and set the child parameters. I also reviewed her online history every week. She pushed back at first, but I explained I owned the phone. Now you don't even need the phone, you can monitor it all through your PC without alerting your kid.

Parents need to start doing their jobs.

Capitalize the B in bilingual…

I still am - and cannot unsee what I see on that thing some days

$80K or so I hear - or is that their opening bid?

So... He's stating a personal opinion, but not looking to overstep his bounds to create legislation... The bastard!

Not sure, I thought it was a two person scam, er ooops I mean "operation"
