Alberta Judge Grants Injunction Blocking a Transgender Health-Care Bill
- On Friday, Alberta's Court of King's Bench issued a temporary injunction to halt Bill 26, which prevents physicians from offering gender-related medical treatments to individuals under the age of 16.
- The injunction followed court actions by LGBTQ2 advocacy groups and families arguing that the bill violates young people's constitutional rights and the amended Alberta Bill of Rights.
- Justice Allison Kuntz stated that the legislation presents significant legal questions requiring thorough judicial review and issued the injunction to protect gender-diverse youth from irreversible harm during ongoing discussions.
- Kuntz stated denying access to care could cause permanent physical changes inconsistent with gender identity, and Egale Canada called the court decision a historic win protecting medical decisions.
- The injunction leaves gender-affirming treatments accessible pending legal review, while Premier Danielle Smith maintains the legislation aims to protect youth from permanent decisions.
