It is not safe, right now, to raise a trans child or teen in Alberta. Families with trans youth should avoid moving into Alberta. Those in Alberta should try seeking healthcare in BC or Sask. (because the ban targets healthcare providers, not youth). Moving between provinces may be necessary. (3/🧵)

If you do not support trans people - by actively dedicating your time and money (if you have it) and voice to their cause - you are a failure of morality and humanity and you are not just a bystander but a culpable participant in one of the most violent attempts at eugenics of our time.

![Screenshot of letter P1
We, the undersigned, are writing to you in regard to an opinion article by Mr. Guy Felicella [ Reprinted here by the Breakdown ] that was published in the Calgary Herald on October 1, 2025, but was subsequently removed without this being communicated to the writer. We ask that this article is re-published immediately and that an apology is issued. Mr. Felicella wrote his article in response to a previous opinion piece by Mr. Marshall Smith , the former chief of staff of the Premier of Alberta, published in the Calgary Herald on September 23, 2025, entitled “Opinion: Banning public drug use is bold, courageous and obvious”. This letter does not mean to address the substance of Mr. Smith’s or Mr. Felicella’s articles, but rather the issue of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. As a person with considerable lived experience in substance use and as an advocate who bridges harm reduction and recovery, Mr. Felicella expressed his concern over Mr. Smith’s approach. In his article Mr. Felicella did not defame, slander or misrepresent facts. He offered a different perspective that is informed by lived experience of substance use, near death from toxic drugs and his recovery journey. Opinion sections in Canadian newspapers are supposed to offer differing opinions, not only those that are in line with the editorial board or of people with power and influence. This is clearly stated in the Ethics Guidelines of the Canadian Association of Journalists (CAJ), which we assume you and your publication espouses to.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6ebqyzhhzwyqsswlucgsm6vp/bafkreigeoxgi7fvotndwf33fa6w5fdtzsyzcklggp25dmuoh6vcpaegybi@jpeg)

hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.
