Mr. Speaker, I would like to draw my colleague's attention to Carrie.
Carrie was a minor when she transitioned. Now she is publicly expressing her experience. She was prescribed hormones after four sessions of therapy and she noted that no attempts were made at these therapy sessions to process personal issues that she raised and no one in the medical or psychological field tried to dissuade her from her gender transition or offer an option other than possibly waiting until she was 18.
This was all Carrie's decision, but what she is saying is that she did not feel she was provided with all the tools that she needed to make that decision properly for herself. I know the justice shadow minister expressed that terminology is important here and that we need to see some amendments that protect individuals who are responsible for communication with people like Carrie. That would be the medical and psychological professions.
What would the member's perspective be on that?
