Here’s another article that covers the actual poll results: Sask. sees highest percentage agree with parental consent for pronoun change: Poll
50±1.5% agree doesn’t seem like “support” to me, especially coming from Angus Reid on a conservative issue. This seems like a draw at best.
I didn’t see full results from that article but that’s a really thin platform to base this policy on.
It wouldn’t matter if 100% of parents polled agreed. That’s just 100% of people who can go fuck themselves.
If your kid doesn’t share their gender with you that’s a you problem to be worked on.
I was just happy it wasn’t a Twitter poll. Maybe I’ve been in Saskatchewan for too long.
