This is also true for federal, Liberals really need to figure out their new prime minister selection and fast. Like let’s face it they are the only party rn that has a chance in beating the conservatives. The longer they spend without a public face advocating for a change the less voter turnout there will be. As for Ontario Bonnie Crombie or Marit Stiles needs to do like a press junket or something that way people that are not that tuned in to the election cycle will actually remember they have another option other then Ford.

Imo, sure it’s very very unlikely to have anything happen. But if there’s even a small chance we should continue trying. I don’t think it’s impossible for a politicians understand that people want something via a petition like this and offer a modified bill that has concessions so it doesn’t fck with any agreements we have with the US but still support trans 'refugees".

Also it’s not really about being friendly it’s more just that if shit does hit the fan and everything planned in the executive orders happens folks have a place to escape to even if it’s not perfect. Since those kinda anti human rights laws are a lot harder to do in Canada then the US.

You would still have to go through the same long and hard process as any other asylum seeker. Idk where you get the idea that trans people would be prioritized all this petition is about is legally qualifying trans people as apart of the class of people that can seek asylum in Canada.

If you want an actual discussion is a statement like, “we shouldn’t help asylum seekers because what’s stopping an immigrant from exaggerating the conflict they face in their original homeland to try and seek asylum?” In good faith?

The organization seems fairly reputable but I can’t 100% confirm anything. But I don’t think petitions have to go through Canadian government website for it to be successful Its just the a more typical approach.
