SAY Collective statement against Bill 2

NO BACKTRACKING ON LGBTQ+ RIGHTS

The South Asian Youth collective denounces Quebec’s proposed Bill 2 and any efforts by the goverment to infringe on the rights of trans, intersex and nonbinary people. The bill, which reintroduces genetalia-based sex markers and the segregation of intersex and trans people by introducing separate sex and gender markers, is violent and will only servce to further marginalize and other the trans, intersex and nonbinary population.

We stand with our trans, intersex and nonbinary community members in the fight for human rights, dignity, self-determination, protection against violence, and community care.
