allthecanadianpolitics:husanniang:kirraqueen:iszszszzsz:allthecanadianpolitics:This man:Conservative Senator Donald PlettJust essentially killed a bill that would protect trans people in Canada from hate crimes. Oh, yeah Harper appointed him.What a transphobic piece of shit.Please contact him and let him know what you think of him:613-992-0180 or 1-800-267-7362Fax: 613-992-0186Email: don.plett@sen.parl.gc.caTwitter: https://twitter.com/donplettI already hated Don Plett from the horrible misogynist anti-sex work garbage I had to hear leave his mouth. I hope he rots.The most recent article on the subjectMr. Garrison (as in NDP politician) said Plett’s amendment “is contradictory to the whole purpose of the bill and it illustrates the transphobia that the bill is designed to fight.”would it also be helpful to email the rest of the senate and lay out why this bill does literally the opposite of protecting trans women (bc lbr thats whom the amendment targets first and foremost)? i dont live in canada, if that makes any difference (probably does, because only canadian opinions matter in elections, ultimately), but maybe if a lot of people do so?All Senators can be emailed/phoned/faxed at the link below:Canadian Senate contactsAlso since later the bill could have these amendments removed by the house of commons, I would recommend contacting your local MP (Member of Parliament) and urging them to reject this amendment. -- source link
