People are so uneducated on the definitions of the word "gender". I think they should be added to anti discrimination laws WHILE providing education of what gender is.
@9F98QST2yrs2Y

Yes, the government should do more to protect minorities from discrimination BUT to a certain extent
@8X7R8D93yrs3Y

@8V5K83Z4yrs4Y
All people should be treated equally, however I do not agree with men identifying as women being in women's washrooms in sight of my daughters.
@8TZ82SG4yrs4Y
Yes, so long as the gender identity of a person is not relevant to some core tenet of an organization or their work.
@8TXD47H4yrs4Y
Yes, but the laws should only cover discrimination based upon legal information regardless of cisgender, transgender etc.
@8F3PG2ZConservative5yrs5Y
Yes, it doesn't matter what a person is or thinks they are. We have no right to judge.
@B3XFV8Q1mo1MO
Yes, I thought it already was.
@9BZXLCF2yrs2Y
Just go over basic anti-discrimination laws
@9BXP6MQ2yrs2Y
Allow the provinces to decide
@97JL3NK2yrs2Y
Just say in the workplace no one can discriminate for any reason
@8XBJ3YGNew Democratic3yrs3Y
I need more explanation. like perhaps re word it or sum?
@9BNG2BP2yrs2Y
Choose to abstain from an answer as I haven’t given it enough thought
@8VJYR484yrs4Y
No, you can't rely on government to determine what is discrimination.
