Statistics Canada is seeking feedback from various groups on options for releasing data collected during the last census, but not publicly shared, on transgender and nonbinary children from toddlers and pre-schoolers to young teens.
In a consultation guide, the federal agency said it “may be breaking new ground” as the first national statistics office in the world to disseminate gender information for children and youth under 15.

Statistics Canada doesn’t appear to trust Canadians when it comes to gender diversity, according to a troubling consultation document compiled by the agency.
Statistics Canada is secretly reaching out to “subject-matter experts” for help on using data related to very young people and their “gender fluidity,” which has been collected, but not yet published.

He’d be a free man if only he had lied and said he was sorry for offending a librarian during a brief encounter in early 2023. That was when he showed up at Saddletowne Public Library to protest drag queens reading stories to children there.
The organisation that oversees girl guide groups in the UK has announced it is banning trans girls from joining.
Girlguiding said the move – which means it will not accept biological boys who identify as girls – was in response to the Supreme Court ruling earlier this year that said sex meant biological sex in equality law.
The trustees said they had made the “difficult decision” with a “heavy heart” and there would be further announcements on what this will mean for current members.
Give men a straightforward threat and they will confront it, often with genuine bravery. Give them something murky or psychological or slow-burning and many slip straight into avoidance. When a situation refuses to make sense, their instinct is to laugh it off; when the laugh fails, they roll their eyes; when that still does not work, they declare the whole thing too trivial to bother with.
The Ontario College of Teachers is facing criticism for pressuring a former Ottawa teacher to permanently surrender her licence over social media posts in which she expressed concerns about gender identity ideology, gender-affirming medical interventions, and women’s sex-based rights.

Future generations will not look kindly on those who betrayed the truth for comfort and career advancement.
The reckoning is finally arriving, echoing the dilemma in Eugene Genovese’s powerful essay, ‘The Question’. Writing in 1994, Genovese confessed that he and many others had remained loyal to the Soviet Union long after they knew about the mass killings and the gulags. ‘For many years’, he admitted, ‘I have lived in dread of having to answer The Question… “What did you know, and when did you know it?”’ Eventually, he acknowledged the uncomfortable truth: ‘We knew everything essential and knew it from the beginning.’ Many mainstream journalists will soon find themselves confronting the same question.
Finally, common sense has prevailed at the International Olympic Committee (IOC). If rumours are to be believed, a blanket ban on transgender-identifying men competing in women’s Olympic events is set to be introduced. At last!
The International Olympic Committee is set to announce a ban on transgender women in female competition early next year after a science-based review of evidence about permanent physical advantages of being born male.
The IOC’s guidance to Olympic sports has until now been that transgender women can compete with reduced testosterone levels but leaves it up to individual sports to decide. That is now set to change under its new president, Kirsty Coventry, who has promised to protect the female category.
The transgender woman who’s the focus of a viral Los Angeles gym bathroom row has insisted she is entitled to use the female facilities — and wouldn’t be comfortable in a trans-only locker room.
Alexis Black spoke out after singer-songwriter Tish Hyman claimed she was recently kicked out of a Gold’s Gym in Beverly Hills for confronting someone she described as a “man” in the female bathroom.

Irish singer Róisín Murphy was dumped as headliner of a music festival in Islamist Istanbul, Turkey, after she celebrated the fact that fewer children are now identifying as transgender.
Good for her though I suspect I may not be her fan demographic.

Trinity Shockley, 18, is set to plead guilty to felony conspiracy to commit murder in return for spending a maximum of 12.5 years in prison and five years of probation, according to the Morgan County Prosecutor’s office.
Disqualified from the 2023 World Championships for failing sex tests, Lin Yu-ting did not even bother appealing. While Algeria’s Imane Khelif initially protested to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, the Taiwanese fighter offered no formal objection to test results indicating the presence of male chromosomes. And yet one year later, both of them were given carte blanche to compete on the grandest stage of all, the Olympic Games, with both winning every round of every bout en route to gold medals.
The reason for this travesty of justice was the spinelessness of the International Olympic Committee, so desperate to appease the gender ideologues that it sat back and allowed a procession of women to be smashed in the face by biological males.
Elon Musk vulnerably told the world in July 2024, “My son Xavier is dead, killed by the woke mind virus,” adding starkly, “They call it deadnaming for a reason … they call it deadnaming because your son is dead.” Musk explained this mind virus to Bill Maher on his show more than a year earlier as a psychic spell where “you can’t question things; even the questioning is bad.”
