A reader thinks the pronouns issue is being used as a blunt wedge issue to placate the Saskatchewan Party base in rural Saskatchewan.

I want to paraphrase comments by Andrew Thomson, political commentator and former Saskatchewan MLA and cabinet minister and now the chief of government relations at the University of Toronto, on the scrum portion of the program.of the Canadian Constitution to overturn a court decision preventing his government from forcing teachers to inform parents of all students up to age 16 from confidentially changing their pronouns and names in a school setting.

Thomson stated that was a political calculation to protect the rural right-wing flank of the Saskatchewan Party base from the Saskatchewan United Party led by Nadine Wilson. He also stated that the Saskatchewan Party has been hemorrhaging votes in the cities to the Saskatchewan NDP. He also indicated that the measures were cruel and that the vulnerable population were being victimized. I agree with every word spoken by Thomson. Parents’ rights are not the issue here.

The issue is that political power is being used as a blunt wedge issue to placate the Saskatchewan Party base in rural Saskatchewan in order stay in power regardless of the consequences to the public at large. This is not my idea of democracy.to find out what you need to know about how to write one in a way that will increase the odds it will be published.
