OTTAWA—While governments are focusing on gender designation in sport, women are just making it happen. Charge Ottawa opened the second season last week with a three-two victory over the Toronto Sceptres at TD Place. The game started a new season with a new name. The league launched last year without team names, and fans were thrilled with the Charge new look.
The Alberta changes go beyond those introduced by New Brunswick and Saskatchewan. The New Brunswick government that introduced a prohibitive transgender law was defeated recently while the Saskatchewan government faced a steep drop in its recent election support. For years, governments have used their power to keep women out of sport, even when female athletic prowess would have meant they could participate equally in men’s sport.
