Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has criticized Alberta's new parental rights policy, labeling it as 'the most anti-LGBTQ policies of anywhere in the country.' He suggested that American conservative commentator Tucker Carlson influenced Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's decision to block sex changes for minors and ban men from competing in women's sports. Trudeau's condemnation followed Smith's recent meeting with Carlson, which has sparked controversy over the policy's impact on LGBTQ rights and parental consent in medical decisions for minors.
Danielle Smith absolutely knows the danger and harm she will be putting these kids in. But she is sacrificing these kids for her own political gain. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli https://t.co/0gbp4RDjkX https://t.co/FE6lmTQTYU
You made a very important point here. Although we may disagree on the premise of your argument, I agree with you that Danielle Smith limited parental rights, as she believes that she is giving children protection that doctors and parents don’t. But she won’t admit it. #ableg https://t.co/RcFucaczCN
Parental rights are not a thing in Canada. It’s not covered under the Charter or the Health Act. Children’s rights are. .@ABDanielleSmith has removed child rights, & given rights to bigoted parents - but no responsibility. If a child comes out & the parent
It’s pretty disgusting how Danielle Smith co-opts pro-choice language with her parental rights thing. #ableg
Do you realize that Danielle Smith played a trick on you and actually removed parental rights? See, until her announcement, for children younger than 18, parental consent was required to undergo medical treatment. Now, parents can’t consent. Government does. Thoughts? #ableg https://t.co/AHCtnC5lgu
Funny Danielle wants to de-politicize her party politics. She will put kids at significant risk in the name of non-existent "parental rights". Sick. https://t.co/FtlP9boqd4
