We wrote a letter to the World Health Organization, protesting that the committee they’ve formed to develop transgender policy is composed almost exclusively of activists, and appears to be deliberately evading input from medical and scientific professionals. We’ve urged them to show down the process and to re-evaluate the makeup of the committee.

LGB Alliance Canada are co-signatories on a comprehensive guidance brief on evidence-based, mental health-focused policy for the education sector.

The following letter by the Gender Dysphoria Alliance, LGB Alliance Canada & The Vancouver Lesbian Collective was mailed, along with a booklet by Post Trans, to 16 LGBT+ resource centres across Canada.

In collaboration with Canadian Gender Report, the Gender Dysphoria Alliance Canada, Genspect, and the Vancouver Lesbian Collective, we submitted a brief to Parliament’s Standing Committee on Health in advance of their meeting on Children’s Health in June 2022. You can read and share our brief, which is hosted at the House of Commons website, here.

We submitted a brief to the House of Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights (“the Justice committee”) in opposition to what was in late 2020 known as Bill C-6. Our brief was distributed to every member of the Committee and published publicly, where it was well-received and widely shared on social media. Nevertheless, Bill C-4 (as it later became known) was passed into law in late 2021. We continue to oppose this law.
