I wish I knew.
Often there is this oversimplification. I'm stumped, honestly, on why. At the end of the day, it's basic dignity and basic respect. I like to joke that I have a trans spouse. I've screwed up their pronouns and we still got married. The world did not end. People make mistakes, but what's happening right now is that they're trying to use these as wedge issues. They're trying to use these to propagate fear and to create this illusion that we're pushing an agenda.
My agenda is the same agenda that gay people and trans people have been pushing forward for generations: That is one where society stops discriminating against us, where we stop experiencing socio-economic disadvantage.
There's nothing radical about that agenda. There is simply the idea of extending this dream of what Canada can be to include a new group of Canadians.
