Handshakes and wearing masks.
How many times has the house expressed a bill to passing, and do so unanimously from all political parties and all members across Canada. This has to be a very rare event in politics.
@Nucky Gulliver show me all the places that offer that service
‘Consentual’ conversion therapy? Is that where parents force/coerce a child to have this heinous procedure?
@Nucky Gulliver No one would willingly consent to torture.
No fool,this is dangerous,and it’s common whenever profit for both parties is on the line,read the bill,this gives the government the authority to lock up parents who refuse transgender medical procedures to little kids as young as 5
@Nucky Gulliver c-10,c-36, I wish we could ban them!.. liberals,ndp.bloc,.. all trash.
With all the terrible stuff going on in this Country, with it becoming too expensive to afford living etc, it is a joke that a topic such as this is even being discussed at the moment. Our Governments priorities are a** backwards. Nice “social distancing” practices going on in Parliament as well.
im sure the children being tortured appreciate it now being illegal to do so.
It’s what one would expect from conservative government.
@Adam Perry it’s usually voluntary and consensual adults that are religious. That’s their business. We’re authoritarians
Our leadership is imbecilic/childlike!
Imagine they actually did something
dud they? consensual conversions are banned too. clapping for authoritarianism
@Nucky Gulliver show me a place where that truly exists
@Nucky Gulliver It does not work, regardless of consent. It is well established that it is ineffective and harmful. Do you suppose we also make all drugs legal for those that wish to take it consensually in the fight against authoritarianism, or legalise lobotomies for those that request it, despite the harmful effects of either of those also being extremely well-documented?
@Nucky Gulliver saying consensual conversation therapy is like saying consensual concentration camps, you can’t consent to torture
Why are hugs and handshakes allowed with the new variant? You guys are weird.
You don’t know anything about the new variant obviously even the woman who found it said it’s not deadlier than Delta there have been no deaths in South Africa due to this variant you freak
Peole they don’t have the same law as you do.
Just last year, when they say stay at home! Liberal was found outside country in vacation.
new variant is apparently harmless, but give you immunity?.. Better than the vaxxxx.
Just wait til the Prometheus variant !!!
@Luc Dallaire that’s because only the special traveling Canadian politicians have the special immunity. The failed slang speaking drama teacher that believes he is Mr Dress up, stayed I believe a night in quarantine.
They’re too proud of themselves for passing an obvious law.
Why is it obvious to make it a crime for consenting adults to get conversion therapy? What business is that of the government’s?
@J Tighe Fraud is a crime.
@Blank Space Provided No it isn’t. You wouldn’t be arrested for reading my horoscope for money.
Sure ….. but it does end all the complaining there is no law. I’m Okay giving them this moment. Afterall, its a moment.
Now lets get to the laws on brainwashing therapy.
You mean what the LGBT community promote?
Bum hurts too much eh?
@Adrian T A Homophobe says what?
@Arch No one’s afraid of you.
@Halbinoni Ok degenerate, go wave your flag and seek attention elsewhere.
Can anybody explain what is the law all about, and give a bit of background ?
Conversion therapy is where someone forces an lgbt person to undergo psychological torture to make them something they’re not, straight and or cis.
@Rosie G Force of any kind is wrong. Forcing you to accept my opinion through LAW is wrong and vis versa.
A shame Parliament couldn’t work together over issues dealing with things like economy, energy etc..
Roll call u will see they are working together, why we need to Nationilize.
They have done well to work together to push forced social immunization on children.
@Jeff Anderson …social immunization? What are you talking about
@Mani well the Government is pushing immunization to the public and you are being immunized in Walmart a social setting .I did not realize this was a difficult concept.
@Mani 30,000 deaths in Canada a country with 37.5 million in over a year and a half. Average age of death is 80 living in LTC facilities. So as no children in Canada are or have been filling hundreds of emergency vehicles hauling the sick and dead away day and night ?Now unvaccinated children will not be able to attend schools.
Okay now let’s revert all COVID restrictions and put in sound economic measures to stop inflation from going out of control, reduce government size then I’ll clap too
Lawyer speak is the worst English ever
What exactly is conversion therapy?
Conversion therapy is where someone forces an lgbt person to undergo psychological torture to make them something they’re not, straight and or cis.
@Rosie G What if it’s the other way around: Trying to make a straight/cis person LGBTQ? Is that also being banned?
@Rosie G Thankyou Rosie
@Halbinoni Hey, you find a single instance of it and let your MP know, and it will be banned.
There’s also no banning of destroying the sun, because no one’s ever tried.
@Halbinoni Its impossible either way to force someone to be something they are not, but yes conversion therapy of any kind is banned.
Wow !! Out of everything and of all the difficulties we face today, you guys focus on this complete nonsense!! Where is the moral compass??? This is just disgusting!
No social distancing??
Conversion one way is banned, but not the other way. Hmm…
TELL MISS C THERE IS NO NEED TO CHEAT THERE IS NO DIS AND UNHOLY HOLY CAN STAY
When are they going to ban sex surgery as a form of therapy for this condition?
