Big Tranny

The New York Times devoted nearly 3,000 words Wednesday to a hostile profile of collegiate swimmer-turned-women’s sports activist Riley Gaines, painting her as rude and ruthless in her vengeance tour against transgender males competing in women’s sports.

Reporter Ruth Graham declared off the top in her headline and subhead: “Riley Gaines Finished 5th. Now She Believes Victory Is in Her Grasp; The former college swimmer has used her race against Lia Thomas, a trans athlete, to propel her career as an influential, and unsparing, activist.”

Canada likes to present itself as America’s friendly neighbour to the north, a paragon of kindness and inclusivity. But beneath the flannel shirts and wholesome, outdoorsy image, it has turned into a laboratory for woke extremism. This is the nation where ‘compassion’ means ushering citizens towards state-assisted death, and where the bank accounts of anti-lockdown protesters are frozen to ensure public safety. The latest victim of Canada’s smothering embrace is nurse Amy Hamm.

Bullied by activists, Gordon Guyatt is now arguing against using his own findings to guide policy

Canadian physician Gordon Guyatt coined the term “evidence-based medicine.” According to the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame, into which he was inducted in 2016, he is one of our country’s “most cited researchers” and “is considered a world authority in the fields of health-related quality of life research, study design, systematic reviews and guideline development.”

These are worrying times for free speech in this country and it is not helped with the persecution of British Columbia nurse Amy Hamm by the province’s College of Nurses and Midwives.

Hamm is the nurse who said sex is binary and also helped pay to put up a sign in Vancouver that declared, “I (heart) J K Rowling.”

It was a frost-bitten day in late January this year. On the Interstate 91 in Vermont, some 15 kilometres from the Canadian border, US border agents pulled over a blue Toyota Prius.

Law enforcement had been tracking the Prius’s two occupants, 21-year-old Teresa ‘Milo’ Youngblut and 26-year-old Felix ‘Ophelia’ Bauckholt for a couple of days. A hotel employee had raised suspicions about the pair after seeing them both wearing black combat clothes and seeing Youngblut carrying a gun. But beyond that, the agents knew little more about them.

A disciplinary panel has suspended a British Columbia nurse for one month and ordered her to pay over $93,000 in costs related to her public statements about women’s rights and single sex spaces.

British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives announced the penalties against Amy Hamm this week.

Transgenderism is retreating.

In a recent piece in The New York Times, Kinnon R. MacKinnon —“an assistant professor who studies transgender care at York University in Toronto” and identifies as a “trans man”— grudgingly admits that the critics were right and that gender ideology, and especially the medical transition of children, was built on lies.

Russell T Davies, TV writer, famed homosexual and the smuggest of luvvies, has hit out at Donald Trump. Apparently the evil oaf in the White House is trashing gay rights. He ‘is literally out to get us’, Davies says, conjuring up an image of The Donald lurking around gay bars with a baseball bat. Apparently, Trump wants gay folk ‘gone, defunded, completely invisible’ and ideally ‘biologically altered to become as straight as him’. The funniest thing about this rant is not its fact-lite delirium but its gall. For everything Davies accuses Trump of doing to gays is actually being done by a movement Davies himself supports – the trans lobby.
