Conservative leadership candidate Maxime Bernier has denounced a transgender rights bill he previously supported, saying it poses a threat to free speech in Canada. |
||
Bernier said he would no longer support the Liberal-sponsored Bill C-16, which amends the Canadian Human Rights Act and the Criminal Code to include the terms "gender identity" and "gender expression." "I regret my decision to vote for Bill C-16. If the vote were held again today, I would vote against it," Bernier said in the statement. | This story is from February 14, but it is important today because it reinforces my story from March 10, in which a firearms rights group gave Bernier the highest possible rating. These stories suggest Bernier might be the best candidate. | |
