The speaker passionately defends the protection of women and girls in sports. They express concern over the Biden administration's proposed Title IX rule, which allows males who identify as women to participate in women's sports. The speaker argues that this would undermine women's rights and eliminate women's sports as they currently exist. They highlight the potential negative consequences, such as women losing access to roster spots, championships, records, and scholarships. The speaker also raises concerns about the safety and privacy of women in spaces like locker rooms. They propose a bill called the Save Women's Sports Act, which prohibits schools receiving federal funding from allowing biological males to participate in women's sports. The speaker urges colleagues to support the bill and protect women's sports.

This is a statement opposing a move by Danielle Smith and the UCP government in Alberta. The speaker argues that this move endangers the safety of queer and gender questioning kids in schools. They express concern that students may now out these kids to their parents, creating an environment of fear and marginalization. The speaker calls for support from allies and champions in the LGBTQ2 community, mentioning organizations like the Social Workers Association of Alberta and the Alberta Teachers Association. They also mention a planned rally at the legislature in Edmonton. The speaker emphasizes the importance of standing up for the kind of Canada and Alberta we want.

I have experienced the consequences of abuse and believe women's private spaces should be exclusively for women. Rape victims should not have to undress in front of men. This issue is pervasive in schools and public facilities, and I will fight against it. Critics claim my language fuels transphobia, but I have supported LGBTQ rights while opposing policies that allow men in women's spaces. I've received numerous death threats for my stance, highlighting the extreme reactions from some. Many women, including those from the left, feel marginalized by these policies. It's crucial to protect women's rights without compromising safety. The hypocrisy of those who preach kindness while attacking dissenters is evident. The focus should be on protecting all women's rights, not just those of trans women.

I have an issue when it comes to targeting our kids and trying to change their gender. I don't care if a 40-year-old person wants to undergo gender reassignment, but I don't want to hear about it, pay for it, or be forced to acknowledge their chosen identity. Leave me alone and stay away from our children.

Republicans are accused of hating gays and women, but I'd rather vote for them than a party that doesn't recognize women. While some criticize Republicans for taking away rights, they argue that the other party is doing the same by not protecting women's rights. The speaker expresses frustration with the focus on trivial issues like bathroom policies while important rights are being eroded. Ultimately, the speaker is confident in their voting choice despite the criticism.

I'm Rose Docherty outside the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Glasgow. You've been cautioned, and you'll be reported from the street, but if you refuse to leave, you will be arrested. For years, we've been told about intimidation and harassment, but this law prevents those who are trying to save the lives of the unborn. Only one member of Scottish Parliament voted against this buffer zone law, John Mason. Kate Forbes, you voted for this, but it's never too late to apologize. Where is the reformed party on pro-life issues? Nowhere to be seen. This law is appalling, and it's sobering to witness. Can you really believe that voting for parties that implement this is the way forward? The time for delusion is over. Vote and stand up for what you believe in, and join the Scottish Family Party via the link below.

Speaker 0, identifying as the only Black lesbian in the room, asks Senator Winner a direct question about women’s safety in female-only spaces, referencing an incident at Gold’s Gym where she was attacked in a locker room by a self-identifying trans woman with a documented history of domestic violence. She asks what Senator Winner would say to women seeking assurance that their safety will be protected from men who, under California law, can self-identify as women in women-only spaces. Speaker 1 responds that “we want everyone to be safe,” and notes that trans people exist as both men and women, saying, “if you're trans women or women.” He emphasizes the need to protect safety for all, acknowledging that trans women are part of the discussion. Speaker 0 continues, praising Senator Winner for housing bills and other actions, but asserts that “millions of women across America are being harassed and sexually assaulted in locker rooms.” She reiterates that she is a lesbian Black woman, not transphobic or homophobic, and stresses that some bills passed by Winner are dangerous for women and young children. She states she represents her community and urges protection for women in light of concerns about trans-inclusive policies. Speaker 2 interjects, urging Speaker 0 to allow Senator Winner to respond, while Speaker 0 reiterates the need for protection of women, specifying “Women. Women. Trans women are doing things. Women. Women.” She asserts that she was assaulted, adding, “They are not. They are men.” She describes the assailant as someone who “broke his wife’s jaw” requiring reconstructive surgery, and emphasizes her identity as a lesbian who is Black. She invites another Black woman to share her feelings, while also challenging the presence of others in the room. Speaker 1 reiterates the goal of protecting the safety of all women and acknowledges that “trans women are also brutalized in this country.” The conversation emphasizes a tension between protecting women’s safety and acknowledging the experiences of trans women, with Speaker 0 insisting, “We cannot be raped in the bathrooms by men that wanna say they're women. They're not women.” Speaker 2 responds by leaving, citing that the group is not protecting women, and remarks on the bills, stating she has read many of them and still finds issues “not right.” The exchange ends with Speaker 2, introducing herself as Tish Heine, and a comment about not allowing Blackness and civil rights to be used to justify laws for children to transform, followed by a remark about disparities in access to tampons versus transformation medication. The conversation also touches on broader political history, with Speaker 1 and Speaker 0 referencing political dynamics, including a note that “things were going so smoothly” before recalling an earlier moment in 2008 involving Aaron Peskin.

Can we discuss the implications of free speech in pubs? The proposed employment bill from Angela Rayner is concerning, as it could restrict conversations in public spaces. If discussing sensitive topics like transgender issues leads to complaints, it might result in people being silenced or even removed from pubs. This situation feels reminiscent of a dystopian reality where only approved speech is allowed. While the intention behind the bill is to prevent workplace harassment, its wording could lead to overreach, stifling open dialogue. Existing laws already address harassment; instead of adding more regulations, we should focus on teaching respect and politeness to foster a more open environment.

The speaker claims the bill pays "lip service" to 16 and 17-year-old victims of sex crimes by watering down penalties. They assert the Democratic caucus is on the "wrong side" of the issue, influenced by an "extremist wing" that normalizes sex with minors. The speaker alleges SB 145 (2020) allows predators to molest children as young as 14 without mandatory sex offender registration and that SB 357 legalized loitering for sex trafficking under the guise of LGBT rights. As a "gay Republican," the speaker finds it offensive to use the gay community as "window dressing for sex trafficking." The speaker argues the bill removes prosecutors' ability to punish those who purchase sex from 16 and 17-year-olds and accuses the bill's supporters of trying to deceive California voters. The speaker also objects to the amendment that removes a legislator's name from the bill. They believe the bill will fail to protect 16 and 17-year-olds from sexual violence and vows to work against it.

I will not apologize for trying to protect women and girls in sports. This hearing was about protecting women, and I am here to stand up for their rights. We have fought for decades to win these rights, and I will continue to protect them. I am a woman, and I will not stop roaring to protect women, because we have rights too.

Alberta has recently joined Saskatchewan and New Brunswick in attacking the rights of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, particularly trans and gender diverse students. This is concerning because these students already face higher rates of suicide, homelessness, and involvement in the child welfare system. Instead of taking away their rights and making spaces less safe, we should be working to protect and further their rights. As the spokesperson for 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, I have been proud to work with my colleagues across party lines to support the rights of trans and gender diverse students in our education system. We will continue to ensure that the government respects their rights and promotes inclusivity and justice in Nova Scotia.

Mister Speaker, powerful anecdotes cannot stand for the consent of another. If women feel unsafe, we should listen. Accommodating a small segment shouldn't supersede women's concerns. The consent of one person doesn't equal another's comfort in bathrooms, sports, or prisons. Nuanced conversations about respect and humanity are possible. Policies protecting women's spaces aren't transphobic. Some liberals agree but fear speaking up due to party orthodoxy silencing women. Both transgender individuals and women fear violence and disrespect. HB 148 allows localities and businesses to define sex for specific policies and isn't a "Nazi movement." Municipalities, private gyms, and prisons should, in limited cases, separate people based on biological sex. Consider the alternative viewpoint without resorting to labels like "bigot" or "transphobe" when questioning women's spaces. Representative asks if comparing bathroom policies to Jim Crow laws is fair, referencing white-passing African Americans. Representative responds that race and Jim Crow are significantly different than sex and women's private spaces.

The speaker addresses a politician about the government's draft guidance on gender identity in schools, which includes a ban on teaching the concept of gender identity. The politician states the guidance is under consultation and clarity is needed for schools to manage this sensitive area. A Labour government would ensure guidance is provided, prioritizing children's well-being and avoiding political exploitation of the issue. While some elements of the draft guidance are acceptable, others are too partisan. The politician would review consultation responses, work with parents, young people, and professionals to address outstanding issues, and avoid ministerial disputes. The politician affirms the existence and right to recognition of trans people, especially vulnerable ones needing support. Clear guidance is needed for schools to support children experiencing distress around their well-being, and a responsible, serious approach is necessary.

Danielle Smith's new policies are being criticized for being transphobic and pandering to far-right extremists. The argument against these policies is that they are based on false information and could lead to increased violence, discrimination, and homelessness for young transgender individuals. It is emphasized that trans rights and children's rights are human rights.

This bill is rooted in socialist ideology and will limit choice and competition, infringing on parents' rights to educate at home. While the government supports it, there are pressing issues regarding children's safety that need addressing, particularly concerning grooming gangs and mass sexual assaults that have been largely ignored in national debates. Recent findings suggest these crimes are widespread, affecting at least 50 towns. The current inquiry lacks focus on the specific issue of Pakistani gangs targeting young white girls, and a more targeted investigation is necessary. If the government fails to act, Reform UK will seek independent inquiries to uncover the truth. Despite past insincerity from some politicians, there is a need for transparency and accountability regarding these serious matters.

A transgender activist was asked to explain the premise of the movement, but they deflected and changed the subject. The speaker believes it is their right to ask this question because there are civil rights specifically for women, such as special bathrooms and sports leagues. They argue that if men are claiming the right to enter these spaces, either all special rights for women need to be abolished or the activists need to explain how these men are actually women. The speaker is not willing to abolish women's rights and believes most women in the country feel the same way.

Gender-affirming care is crucial for transgender children, saving lives rather than ruining them. However, there are individuals pushing legislation against trans inclusion and life-saving healthcare. This is just the beginning of a deliberate and organized effort to eradicate transgender people. These bills, if passed, will result in the deaths of trans individuals, including children. Shockingly, some refer to this as the "transgender question." It's important to reflect on the gravity of this situation.

Women have a right to privacy and dignity. I believe Representative McGraw deserves fairness, but I will not allow any man to erase women's rights. We have a significant disagreement on this issue, despite having collaborated on other legislation. As the first woman to graduate from The Citadel, I refuse to let a man dictate my rights. It is unacceptable for a man to be in my dressing room or bathroom while I undress.

Danielle Smith's new gender and pronoun policy is causing controversy. The Alberta Medical Association released an open letter stating that the decision to seek gender affirming care should be between a person and their doctor. They also mentioned that puberty blocking agents are not irreversible and have benefits. The surgeries targeted by the program were not happening, as bottom surgery is not available in Canada for patients under 18. Concerns were raised about creating a private registry of physicians providing gender affirming care as it is seen as a surveillance measure. The government did not consult with a child and youth advocate, and other medical associations have also opposed the program. The Alberta government sent out a poll asking whether parental consent should be required for abortions for those under 18, which is seen as an attempt to strip rights from young people. This puts trans kids at risk for political gain.

We came to this public square for a peaceful protest to share what we believe society needs: the removal of the craziness surrounding multiple genders, because there are only two. We were greeted with hostility by the rainbow community. Some of our guys have bruises and cuts, but the police did nothing about the physical harm we experienced, even refusing to take details for a complaint. Young women also tried to harm our men, and while we didn't touch them, they blocked our access to a community space. We believe that if you have gender confusion, keep it at home. Public spaces should be free for all, with no priority to any one conversation. We should have been able to enter peacefully.

If we don't speak up against this nonsense, we'll lose women's rights, sororities, and our safety. We shouldn't have to expose ourselves to perverted men or surrender to this madness. Let's find our voices, ladies, and the men who support us. Otherwise, this will be our future. We can support trans people without compromising our own well-being.

Some individuals are trying to define who is a woman, but we encourage them to provide a scientifically based definition. We are open to considering new ideas, but we will not engage in politically motivated conflicts. The hate speech and aggression on social media fueled by this agenda is unacceptable.

Mister Speaker, powerful anecdotes of one person cannot stand for the consent of another. If women feel unsafe, we should listen. Accommodating a small segment of the population shouldn't override women's concerns. The consent of one person doesn't mean another is comfortable with transgender women in bathrooms, sports, or prisons. These conversations can be nuanced; policies protecting women's spaces aren't transphobic. Some liberals agree but are silenced by the Democratic Party's orthodoxy. People fear violence and disrespect from both sides. HB one forty eight allows localities and businesses to define sex for specific policies and isn't a Nazi movement. Calling the other side Nazis doesn't help genuine questions about women's spaces. Municipalities, private gyms, and prisons should be able to separate people based on biological sex in limited circumstances. Consider the alternative side without calling them bigots or transphobes for questioning women's spaces. Representative asks if comparing bathroom bans to Jim Crow laws is fair, referencing white-passing African Americans avoiding discrimination. Speaker responds that race and Jim Crow are significantly different than sex and women's private spaces.

Democrats blocked a vote on the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, allowing men to compete in women's sports. Senators like Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, and Kirsten Gillibrand voted against it. The speaker criticizes them for not standing up for women and girls, calling it shameful and urging for accountability.

The speaker opposes Bill C-16 and refuses to use gender pronouns demanded by transgender activists. They believe it is ridiculous and an invasion of personal rights. They mention the importance of the word "Ms." in the English language, which provided dignity and authority to women regardless of marital status. They criticize the political agitation to change everyday speech and express their frustration with people searching for their own identity and imposing it on others. The speaker asserts that the English language belongs to everyone and rejects the idea of being told how to use pronouns.
