It's the Tumbler Ridge Effect

Did that go down the memory-hole already?:

 A recent survey has revealed that fewer Canadians support people being able to express their gender however they choose compared to eight years ago.

The findings, published in Statistics Canada’s Juristat , were based on self-reported data from the 2018 and 2025 Survey of Safety in Public and Private Spaces (SSPPS). The survey examined how attitudes toward gender-related issues have changed over time.

When it came to gender expression, women were more likely than men to agree with statements supporting people’s rights to gender expression.

In 2025, 77 per cent of women and 70 per cent of men agreed that people should be able to express their gender however they choose. Women were also more likely to say they would support a family member if they came out as transgender (77 per cent compared to 65 per cent).

However, support for people’s right to express their gender however they choose has declined among both women and men since 2018.

The percentage of women who agreed that people should have this right decreased from 85 per cent to 77 per cent, while support among men dropped from 78 per cent to 70 per cent.

The StatCan survey doesn’t examine the potential causes behind the decline, but notes that the changes in attitude coincide with “a period of animated public discourse” surrounding the rights of transgender and non-binary people.

 

Rather, people got tired of clearly mentally affected people screaming biological untruths at them and their supporters in high places who go short of threatening gulag treatments to people who correctly point out that GENDER is a grammatical construct and not a scientific one, that wearing a dress doesn't make one a woman, that NATURE determines half of your fate, and that forcing people to embrace the ridiculous will eventually backfire, even in a country that will accept almost any monstrosity.
