Alberta Judge Upholds Trans Youth Care Restrictions
Description
Alberta Judge Upholds Trans Medical Care Restrictions, Advocates Plan Appeal
An Alberta judge has ruled that the provinces ban on puberty blockers and hormone therapy for trans youth under sixteen falls under provincial health and safety powers, not federal criminal law. This decision has paused a main Charter challenge by advocacy groups, who plan to appeal the jurisdiction call. The fight over trans rights continues as other Alberta laws, such as pronoun permissions and trans athlete bans, remain in effect.
