REGINA – Today, Official Opposition Deputy Leader Nicole Sarauer and Opposition Critic for Human Rights Meara Conway, joined by Queen City For All, demanded that the Saskatchewan Party Government take province-wide action on conversion therapy. This comes as Regina City Council officially adopted a bylaw this week to prohibit the violent and discredited practice that continues to harm 2SLGBTQIA+ people in Saskatchewan.
“We’re very proud of the fact that both Saskatoon and now Regina city councils have shown clear leadership on this issue to ban this practice within their city limits,” said Conway. “However, this step was only necessary due to the lack of leadership at the provincial level from Premier Moe and this government. Regardless of the municipality, all LGBTQ+ people in this province deserve those protections.”
