Default International Transgender Day of Remembrance

Today is International Transgender Day of Remembrance. Here is the list of known transgender deaths in the past year, most from violence and many of the rest from suicide. https://www.transremembrance.org/international-list Let's honour them by pledging to protect transgender rights.

"On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honour the memory of all transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. Today, and every day, we mourn these losses and are reminded of our collective responsibility to continue the fight for acceptance, understanding and equality.

“As Minister of Arts, Culture and Status of Women, I am committed to supporting transgender people and promoting understanding and respect for all Albertans. Today, we also recommit ourselves to creating a province where everyone is free to be their true authentic self, free from violence and prejudice.


“There is no place for hate or intolerance within our province.”

It's kind of amazing how easily they can say one thing and do the opposite.

I didn't want to politicize the thread, but yeah, protecting trans rights means rejecting the UCP.

Reject any conservative group pretty much world wide, seems like most of them are getting their LGBTQ hate orders directly from Moscow
