Blake Tait says he’s still healing from being outed by his school’s guidance counsellor when he was 14.
Tait is one of many LGBTQ+ advocates who say the campaign promise is hateful and puts transgender youth at risk. NDP Leader Carla Beck accused Moe of stoking fear and division with voters and making vulnerable kids more at risk. Most kids don’t want to hide from their parents, Tait said, but those who do typically have a reason.
Heather Kuttai, the mother of a gender-diverse child and a former commissioner with the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission, said Moe is targeting transgender children to bring in voters because they are an"easy target."
