Canada’s national pro-life organization Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) warned that a radical pro-LGBT bill banning so-called “conversion therapy” in all its forms could lead to parents and pastors being jailed.
Bill C-4 was passed without debate last Wednesday with sweeping bipartisan support, after Conservative Party of Canada Member of Parliament Rob Moore successfully motioned to have the bill “fast-tracked” to the Senate.
In essence, Bill C-4 would punish anyone helping children or others with gender confusion or unwanted same-sex attraction with jail time of up to five years.
In a new video titled, “Trudeau Liberals admit ‘conversion therapy’ ban can put parents & pastors in jail,” CLC showed past video clips of Trudeau ministers speaking about previous iterations of Bill C-4.
The new bill defines conversion therapy as a “practice, treatment or service” meant to “change a person’s sexual orientation to heterosexual”; “change a person’s gender identity to cisgender”; “change a person’s gender expression so that it conforms to the sex assigned to the person at birth”; “repress or reduce non-heterosexual attraction or sexual behaviour”; “repress a person’s non-cisgender gender identity”; or “repress or reduce a person’s gender expression that does not conform to the sex assigned to the person at birth.”
The bill makes it illegal to cause “another person to undergo conversion therapy”; to do “anything for the purpose of removing a child from Canada with the intention that the child undergo conversion therapy outside Canada”; to promote or advertise conversion therapy; and to receive a financial or “other material benefit from the provision of conversion therapy.”

Not the exact thing. Most people would agree that forcing kids not to be gay is wrong. This legislation works under the guise of that moral principle but threatens to prevent parents from parenting their children.

Well said This is so true, especially with all the 'normalizing' of the LBQT (or whatever) movement , queers reading stories to kids etc

My issue is that they only seem to indicate that this is a problem only if going from non-straight to straight. Children can be tricked into saying darn near anything so this definitely seems like it will hurt more than help. They assume it is abuse to brainwash a gay child into being straight but they seem to be clueless how that could happen the other way around and are preventing people from correcting that when it does.
Anyone can just proclaim any child to be gay or trans and then rip them from their parents.
When you have activists teaching kids, this will occur very often.
Canada has a long history of taking children away from their parents and brainwashing them in abusive state schools, just ask a native (first nation or whatever the hell you canucks call them now).

To clarify: Do you think gays need "fixing"?

I disdain fear as a response. Skepticism is rational, self defense is practical, paranoia is toxic. None of which has anything to do with the topic at hand.

Then you are in the wrong website…the righties here deal only with creating fear and anger in their threads.
