Have you ever heard of a story that you just don’t want to believe is true because it is so insane? If not, here you go. When people talk about how great Canada is compared to the US, share this with them and pray that we are not going to go this crazy.
Setting The Stage
At age 13, the girl’s psychologist recommended that she begin taking cross-sex hormones. Yes, you read that correctly, 13 years old. Robert Hoogland, the girl’s father, refused to give permission, pointing out his daughter’s history of mental illness. Doctors at BC Children’s Hospital then decided that the girl should start receiving testosterone injections. The father objected, citing possible side-effects of the shots. The doctors informed him that the girl’s consent was enough and that he did not need to agree to the injections.
What to do next?
Hoogland, being a loving father who cares for his daughter, sought an injunction in order to stop doctors from giving his daughter the injections. How did it turn out? Here is where we see the government truly overstepping its role. Justice Gregory Bowdenruled not only stated that the girl, yes, the 13-year-old, got to make the decision. Important note, you can’t buy a lighter or spray paint if you are under 18. Ready for more? He also stated this. “Attempting to persuade (the girl) to abandon treatment for gender dysphoria; addressing (the girl) by his birth name; referring to (the girl) as a girl or with female pronouns whether to him directly or to third parties; shall be considered to be family violence under s. 38 of the Family Law Act.” This happened in February 2019.
The following is from a report by The Federalist.
The evening of Bowden’s decision, Clark granted an interview to The Federalist in which he referred to his daughter as a girl, “because she is a girl. Her DNA will not change through all these experiments that they do.” Citing this statement — among other verbal “expressions of rejection of [Maxine’s] gender identity” — the BC Supreme Court convicted Clark of “family violence” in April 2019. Judge Francesca Marzari even issued an order authorizing Clark’s arrest “without warrant” by any police officer who might catch him referring to his daughter “as a girl or with female pronouns.”
The government took this parent’s rights away. Here is what her father had to say about it. “I had a perfectly healthy child a year ago, and that perfectly healthy child has been altered and destroyed for absolutely no good reason. She can never go back to being a girl in the healthy body that she should have had. She’s going to forever have a lower voice. She’ll forever have to shave because of facial hair. She won’t be able to have children… Sometimes I just want to scream so that other parents and people will… jump in, understand what’s going on. There’s a child—and not only mine, but in my case, my child out there having her life ruined.”
Fast forward to March 2021
How have things turned out? Hoogland has been arrested. He has refused to call his daughter a boy, and according to the insane left, he has committed a crime. This father who was trying to protect his daughter is now being charged for calling his daughter a girl instead of a boy.
This is pure insanity. What happened to “follow the science.” What are they going to do if in a few years (you know, when she is old enough to buy spray paint) this girl decides that she made a mistake? She can’t go back to being the same girl she was. She can no longer have children. Her body is forever changed. We have politicians, judges, even doctors who are pushing these life-changing procedures on kids not old enough to buy a beer. How is it that you can be mature enough to decide to change your sex but not drink a beer?
