CdnFox Posted February 22, 2023 Report Posted February 22, 2023 Quote https://www.dailywire.com/news/detransitioner-files-first-lawsuit-in-canada-against-medical-providers A woman in Ontario who identified as transgender and underwent hormone therapy, a bilateral mastectomy, and a hysterectomy filed the first lawsuit in Canada against her healthcare providers for facilitating her transition. Michelle Zacchigna, a 34-year-old woman from Orillia, Ontario, recently announced a lawsuit she filed against the eight doctors and mental health professionals who treated her over the years, alleging that they failed to address her complex mental health needs and instead allowed her to self-diagnose as transgender and undergo irreversible procedures that she now regrets. Can open .. worms everywhere... This will have massive implications for human rights tribunals and lawmakers federally and provincially. If the judge finds in favour of this person then the implication is that you MUST challenge the person's desire to transition and make sure that other no other better options are available first. However - current practices are that you should NEVER challenge a person who wishes to transition and you should facilitate it. As her doctors did. This could be pretty earth shaking in Canada. It's definitely a case to watch. While it's a provincial case now it's bound to wind up in the federal courts on appeal regardless of who wins Quote "That which doesn't kill me... Had better start running."
