What I Suffered Being ‘Transgender’

When I was 11, I began identifying as transgender. I had gone down a rabbit hole of websites and niche online forums. There I met a friend—an artist who was 14—whom I admired and looked up to.

We both felt different, out of place in society. Born 10 years earlier, we would have been called tomboys. Instead, we writhed under the pressure of the “female role.” The internet told us the logical conclusion of that struggle was to identify as boys.

I come from a broken home. While my mother and stepfather always loved me, my stepfather became severely disabled when I was 3, leaving me feeling as though I had to raise myself. I eventually reached out to my biological father around a decade later. When he and my stepmother saw my distress—and were told by a psychiatrist that this distress was related to my transgender identity—they began to consider the benefits of affirming me in my transition.

Canada not on track to hit net-zero by 2050, or meet any climate targets says sketchy climate alarmist group that receives mucho government handouts

OTTAWA – A new study published Friday by the Canadian Climate Institute says Canada is not on track to meet any of its climate targets — not the 2026 interim emissions reduction target, the 2030 Paris Agreement commitment, or even the long-term goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050.

The report suggests Canada has moved away from its climate goals thanks to “a slackening of policy effort over the past year, marked by the removal or weakening of climate policies across the country.”

Guess who wrote the report.

Torontonians frustrated over pace of snow removal, $2M parking crackdown: ‘This is about money’

Frustrated Toronto residents are angry that the city is cracking down on parking in snow removal zones — even though some streets remain choked with piles of ice more than two weeks after the storm.

“This is not about snow removal — this is about money,” said Mimi Dinolfo, a store owner on College Street near Bathurst who’s received four $100 tickets since the blizzard at the end of January, when the city declared its second major snow emergency, making main roads like College illegal to park on.

“We took the snow out of in front of our stores,” said Dinolfo, who has fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis and has to regularly park near her store.

Doctor at Jeffrey Epstein’s post-mortem says the paedophile was strangled and NOT hanged

Jeffrey Epstein was strangled, not hanged in his New York prison cell, according to a doctor present at his post-mortem.

Dr Michael Baden has called for the cause of the paedophile’s death to be reinvestigated, almost seven years after he was found unresponsive at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on August 10, 2019.

He is unconvinced by the conclusion of the New York Medical Examiner’s Office that the American millionaire took his own life while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

Children paid in NHS puberty blocker trial backed by Streeting

Children are being paid to take part in an NHS puberty blocker trial, The Telegraph can reveal.

Some 226 children who believe they are transgender will be given puberty blockers as part of an investigation commissioned by Wes Streeting, the Health Secretary, into their effects on the young.
