OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada's health minister on Thursday said planned restrictions for transgender youth in the Western province of Alberta are "extremely dangerous," a sign that policies could become a political wedge issue going into next year's election.
On Wednesday, conservative Alberta Premier Danielle Smith unveiled sweeping changes to policies related to students and gender identity, restricting the medical treatments they may seek. This includes prohibiting hormonal treatment, puberty blockers and gender affirming surgery for children under 15 years of age and banning gender-related surgery for minors.
Parents also will have to give permission for any student under 15 to use a different pronoun and name than the one given at birth, and transgender women will not be able to join female sports teams, Smith said.
"The decision that was made by Alberta places kids at risk. We know that one of the number one reasons why kids take their life is problems around sexual identity," Health Minister Mark Holland, a Liberal, told reporters.
"I think it's extremely dangerous to engage in this kind of thing, which is, I think, playing politics when you're talking about children's lives," he added.

Oh my one of Trudeau's minions is mad.
The hypocrisy is staggering.
The only ones playing politics with kid’s sexual identities are the leftists who are exploiting it.
Dangerous for who, Justine?
It’s time for milestones to be placed on necks near the sea 🌊.
A political wedge issue, eh?
I hope so.
When it comes to this subject the most ‘extremely dangerous’ part is the idea that transgender is possible.
There is no one who is transgender, youth or otherwise. They are transvestites. Let us get our categories right.
What, castrating a young boy is NOT dangerous? Whew.
And they are 5 times more likely to take their own lives AFTER they transition. Transitioning is just kicking the can down the road instead of dealing with the true problem of WHY they think they are the "wrong gender".
