TRAILER Transgression - My Search For the REAL Trans Agenda in Saskatchewan
subscribe to Transgression
On October 1, the first 3 episodes of my new documentary podcast series Transgression - My search for the REAL trans agenda in Saskatchewan comes out. Please have a listen to the trailer and follow the show for fresh downloads.
Since 2023 the Premier of Saskatchewan, Scott Moe, and his government have set their sights on the trans community, specifically trans youth . With the creation of the controversial Bill 137 and Moe’s comments during the last provincial election, I had questions. So as a white, cisgendered, straight man, I wanted to find out what the trans agenda in Saskatchewan really is.
During my search of over six months, I interviewed queer, religious and 2 spirited leaders, mental health and legal experts, health care providers, teachers, politicians, parents, and trans adults and youth. In each episode I share some of these conversations regarding specific issues for trans people in Saskatchewan. You may be surprised to hear what I discovered and what I feel is the real trans agenda in Saskatchewan.
