🔊 Dr. Joss Reimer (uses any pronouns), President of the Canadian Medical Association talks to us about the CMA's Constitutional Challenge of Alberta Bill 26 which banned trans youth from receiving appropriate healthcare in late 2024.

"Bill 26 directs physicians on how to deliver gender-affirming care to people under 18, down to which medications they can use, when and how. This is an historic and unprecedented government intrusion into the physician-patient relationship and requires doctors to follow the law rather than clinical guidelines, the needs of patients and their own conscience."
