A few years ago I[34F] have become a mainstay voter for the Conservative Party of Canada. I have been very disappointed with the way NDP has run our province (although the current Premier David Eby is pretty good), and the way Liberals are with Canada. But just recently this news came out from the provincial CPC: https://tnc.news/2023/06/23/bc-conservatives-womens-spaces/

Sometimes I feel disappointed and a bit upset. I feel like as a transsexual woman who is post-op, and have been living mostly stealth for years, women’s spaces are safe for me. I don’t know how many times I have been harassed by men in my 20s, and even had to call the police a couple times.

I feel more and more alienated by the modern transgender movement, whereas I just want to continue living my life. My history does not make my personality. I was happy to know that Hannah Hodson (trans) is a Conservative MP, as well as Melissa Lantsman (cis lesbian). But I wish there was just as much vocal support for people like me in Conservative communities. I guess I won’t be voting in the next election until the Conservative Party stops making “trans” a star issue.

All because of drag queen story time, trans issues have been dragged into this. I can’t imagine what it is like in the USA.
