"It is not possible that Anthony has three kids that identify as trans. Because that would mean that all three would have gender dysphoria . . ."
I don't think you worded this quite right, James. It's becoming clear (and has been acknowledged by some therapists) that you don't have to have "gender dysphoria" to identify as trans (or non-binary, or whatever). You might do it because it gets you celebrated, gives you an in-group, and maybe exempts you from criticism for basically any kind of narcissistic or anti-social behaviour.
It's often said that there is no fiercer advocate for trans "rights" than the parent (mothers in particular!) of a trans child. I understand that, I really do. But it makes it hard to put much stock in the views of the mother in the G&M opinion piece linked above. Of COURSE she's going to espouse these things, and of course she's not going to even mention potential harms . . .
Only slightly related: I heard an interesting statement the other day, to the effect that: If a child "comes out" as trans at the age of 4, it would be very much like if your cat came out as vegan; it would be pretty clear who was driving the lifestyle change.
This is truly bizarre. How is it possible that a country like Canada, universally recognized as a force for good, slip so far down the rabbit hole ? According to federal guidelines, sex education, mandated in most Canadian schools, is supposed to teach youth about healthy sexual expression and relationships.
Promoting gender dysphoria in young children is hardly healthy or normal in fact it is simply vomitus. As for the unions, they should keep their noses out of parental affairs and restrict their intimidation tactics for the negotiating table.

These groomers are in complete panic. We are winning. Its now clear. Truth will prevail. Looking forward to seeing their so called intimidation tactics. It better be more than taking a photo of my licenses plate.
James Pew is alert to the problem of radicalized unions. To quote Kemosabe above: “As for the unions, they should keep their noses out of parental affairs and restrict their intimidation tactics for the negotiating table.” Unions seem deaf or oblivious to calls for a return to their paid role of representing teachers and not ideologies.
Unions seek to "demoralize" parents

Anthony is no longer a rarity with his special brood. Here's another parent of three LGBTQ+ kids, expounding on the importance of protecting the rights of children: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-parents-should-be-defending-childrens-rights-rather-than-rushing-to/ (Sept 16, 2023).

Those unions are dangerous to Canada.

And these unions are in control of how many millions of dollars?
The teaching union has evidently been captured by sadistic paedophilia.
