Demand for Senate Committee Hearings on C4 to Protect Children
The Simple fact is when we're talking about Gender Ideology: The Emperor Wears no Clothes
To the Honorable Senators of Ontario;
I am writing about significant concerns about Anti-Conversion Bill C-4 introduced November 29 in the House of Commons and now before the senate. I am the parent of a trans-identified child, who is one of an exploding cohort of young people around the world who have come to believe they are transgender.
Yet C4 would protect this practice and criminalize parents and anyone who would attempt to point this out to a trans-identified gender-questioning child.
Medical conversion in Canada can only be called experimental and interventions for changing gender have only existed for sixty years. Its history is closer to Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein than to the glitter and rainbows being sold to children with mental illness today which has them begging for medicalization and threatening suicide if they don’t get it (which is a practice they are coached on online and by activist doctors).
Children are coming to believe they are transgender after being exposed to online groups that use psychologically destabilizing bullying tactics, emotional abuses and psychic manipulations similar to cults.
In this cult, anyone who questions or does not agree with the ideology of trans activism, and transgenderism is labeled a transphobic bigot – and so kids get exposed, and they are drawn in like people into a cult, and then they can’t get out. In the public people are terrified to speak critically of the abuses that we can all see for fear of backlash including social ostracism, losing reputation and even losing employment.
The numbers of trans identified children in the developed world has skyrocketed in the last ten years, highly correlated to teen-access to the internet via smartphones. For example, the leading (only) gender clinic in the UK (Tavistock - GIDS) saw a 4,400% increase in trans-identified girls from 2007 to 2017 seeking medicalization.
Medicalization for pre-teen and teen girls (largest modern cohort of trans-idenitified people) involves Puberty Blockers, Cross Sex Hormones, bilateral mastectomies, and even hysterectomies before they’re old enough to vote.
Puberty Blockers are toxic cancer drugs and come from the same class of pharmaceuticals used to chemically castrate sex offenders. They are being used off-label to halt puberty in children who identify as trans in Canada as young as 10. This compromises brain development and has serious negative impacts on skeletal development. No long-term studies have been done on the efficacy of this practice so we simply cannot state that this is effective practice.
Yet today, we are contemplating a bill that will make it criminal for a parent, teacher, psychiatrist or doctor to even question a child who wants to “change sex”
Explosive reports in the last 60 days in major news outlets are sounding alarm bells. In Washington Post (Nov 2021) senior therapists at WPATH (the World Professional Association of Transgender Health) – which sounds alarm bells on sloppy and rushed gender medicalization, also observes that trans-identified children are now one in sixty in the USA (1.7%). Compare this to the scientific data and research documented in the most recent edition of the DSM-V (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual) for psychologists and psychiatrists, observing the prevalence of trans identification at 1 in 10,000 or 0.01% of the population.
I must state unequivocally, that Bill C4, will further entrench and institutionalize an egregious constellation of physical and psychological harms that thousands of vulnerable children in Canada are already being subjected to: Those stemming from being caught up in what we are now understanding in stark terms as a dangerous social contagion, a manipulative cult-phenomenon driven, it seems, by online exposure to pro-trans groups online. (Littman 2018).
I am a professional analyst running a wealth-management and financial planning practice in Ottawa as a partner in a firm. In the 90’s I did my undergraduate honors thesis on Indigenous Claims and the history of relations with the federal government. In the course of that work, I was honored, humbled and devastated to hear the direct experience of dozens of people who were sent to residential schools in Canada.
As you are aware, this was a phenomenon where the Federal Government decided that it knew best what was good for minority children and passed legislation to destroy the rights of indigenous parents to guide and raise their own children. We know the consequences of this.
Residential schools are the only comparable that we have to the scandal we will be complicit in if C4 is passed as is. Once again, indigenous children are among the most negatively affected by this growing phenomenon. A Gender Therapist in Vancouver (Dr. Wallace Wong) boasts that he has “Transitioned” over 200 Indigenous children in the Foster-Care and public care system in BC.
What will emerge as we understand this health crisis for trans-identified youth more and more clearly will be bigger than the Thalidomide Scandal, Bigger than the tainted blood scandal, bigger than the “Repressed Memories of Sexual Abuse” scandal of the 90s.
What will make it a scandal of that scale is that under the banner of helping children, is that the federal and provincial governments will be complicit in the mass sterilization and the surgical mutilation of children.
As a trained researcher and professional analyst, working with some of the leading organizations and researchers speaking out about this, I can provide you with a comprehensive informal brief on the significant problems this bill will create for Canadians and why we must slow down to hear expert testimony from numerous organizations and experts on this issue.
The number one reason this bill needs to modified is to adequately understand, define what Transgender is and what it means. If we are contemplating a bill that bans conversion therapy, one must clearly define the terms. I liken this to the idea that if you want to go somewhere, you have to know where you’re coming from and what your destination is. Without knowing where we are or where we are going, we are lost.
Being Trans or being gender-non-conforming is not like being gay; nor is extending rights to Trans people the same as extending rights to Gays and Lesbians. At issue specifically here is that there are AT LEAST FOUR different types of Trans phenomenon. This is well established in medical literature.
One type of Trans phenomenon, which up until a few years ago was the most common type, is classified in psychiatry as a paraphilia, which is also known as a sexual fetish. It used to be called Transvestic Fetishism. Research shows that as many as 75% of Male to Female transitioners are heterosexual (biological Males attracted to females) who seek transition as adults (often in their 40s and even 50s) because of the growing intensity of a sexual fetish they have had since childhood - which typically began with women’s underwear and masturbation.
These trans men are known as Autogynephiles or AGPs, and they hide any criticism they might face for violating the sexual boundaries of others behind rainbow flags, while making claims and allegations of hate speech, human rights violations and transphobia. They are bullies.
See biological male sex offenders who self-id as trans being transferred to women’s prisons in Canada under human rights protections for LGBTQ.
Most vocal Trans Activists are this type of Trans person - and they use their minority identity and “Oppressed Status” to gain access to law makers and to influence policy to protect their interests. This can be seen in the rapidly unfolding Stonewall Scandal in the UK where Trans Activists used a well-established LGBT lobby organization to corrupt and capture public policy to their advantage while giving MPs a giant virtue-signaling opportunity for their constituents. This backfired for Stonewall, which will likely collapse, and for politicians that were witless enough to fall for this without questioning it.
To be fair, most AGP Trans Women (Bio Males) who get off acting like women are not criminals or sex offenders but the AGP phenomenon and all its variations are well established in academic studies and literature.
One must ask themselves, is it a human right for a person with a sexual fetish to have their fetish protected in the criminal code?
If we are to ban conversion therapy in law, starting points/conditions and ending points/conditions MUST be defined adequately with inputs from medical and psychiatric experts - and not just (mostly AGP trans activists)
Fortunately Canada can boast as having the world's leading professional experts in this field. Including Dr. Kenneth Zucker, Dr. Debrah Soh, and Dr. Ray Blanchard.
Here are five areas I will address in subsequent communication:
Bill C-4 as-is will have negative impacts and create conflict and outrage in five groups of your constituents:
1. Parents of Gay, Lesbian and Trans Identified Children
2. LGB People, particularly Lesbians
3. Indigenous People
4. Women’s Rights Advocates and Feminists
5. Evidence-Based voters who believe in science
Call to Action:
To protect children and all of the interest groups above, the Senate MUST hold hearings with diverse expert testimony and send the bill back to the House of Commons for amendments consistent with our scientific understanding of what Trans is – in order to protect children.
We need appropriate, diverse and objective inputs from Medical and Psychiatric experts who are NOT trans Activists.
