🇨🇦⚽️ Canadian footballer Quinn becomes the first out trans and non-binary player to feature at a World Cup

Some strange things are happening at the women's World Cup. Canada has announced that the first openly non-binary and trans person will play for their team. Quinn, formerly known as Rebecca Quinn, has already played in Friday's match between Canada and Nigeria.

First of all, how can somebody be both trans and non-binary at the same time?

Secondly, a biological woman participates in the women's World Cup, but somehow they manage to make it about trans and queer pride.

For some reason, Quinn, being trans, doesn't want to participate in the men's World Cup. Could it be because the men would have a physical advantage over her? Then it makes sense where this whole non-binary show is coming from.

🇺🇸🏳️‍⚧️Protecting sports from gender ideology

🔻Gender ideology has infiltrated not only the health care industry, but also professional sports. In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of trans athletes who compete, win competitions and even set new records by presenting themselves as members of the opposite sex.

A full-scale media war has erupted over Lia (William) Thomas, a previously mediocre (ranked 462nd) male-swimmer, who now competes in the women's section. Thomas won the 2022 Division I women’s 500-yard freestyle championship, leaving Olympic silver medalist Emma Weyant behind.

In 2019, CeCe Telfer, a muscular transwoman who previously competed as a man, won the 2019 NCAA Division II 400 meter hurdles championship. And this year, transwoman cyclist Austin Killips won a North Carolina race.

🔻As incidents like these have become more frequent, some U.S. states have taken it upon themselves to protect traditional sports and have banned athletes from competing according to their gender identity. Since 2021, the number of states that have passed such laws has grown from 0 to 22.

It's worth noting that these laws primarily protect women's sports, as it is trans women's victories that usually make headlines. Trans activists claim that the dramatic improvement in performance is due to the fact that athletes finally find their "true" selves after transitioning, but if that were true, we would see similar victories among transmen athletes. And we don't.

🔻There is a worldwide trend to protect sports from gender ideology. The World Athletics Council announced earlier this year that it would not allow transgender athletes to compete against women in female World Rankings competitions.

But gender ideology has a very strong grip on the modern world. It's possible that we may soon see the creation of a separate category for trans and "non-binary" athletes to compete in.

💵🇺🇸 Gas prices hit 8-month high as oil prices soar

Prices at the pump in the US hit an eight-month high this week — boosted by the increased cost of crude oil as producers slash output.

According to roadside assistance company AAA, as of Friday, the average national gas price is $3.73 per gallon for regular gas — up 20 cents from last month’s average.

The more fuel-efficient premium gas, meanwhile, has surged to nearly $4.50 — also a 20-cent increase from June.

Another great example of Bidenomics, I suppose.

🇨🇦🏳️‍⚧️Trans Canadian slams doctors for denying her euthanasia request, saying death would be better than her constant pain from a surgically-built vagina

This is an actual piece from the Daily Mail.

Lois Cardinal underwent a vaginoplasty in 2009, but developed complications and quickly regretted the procedure. She feels constant pressure, pain and discomfort now, many years after the original surgery.

She applied for medical assistance in dying (MAiD), which is becoming increasingly available in Canada, but so far her request was denied.

Most recipients suffer pain and discomfort afterward, according to a recent study from the University of Florida.

This kind of thing is becoming the new normal for Canada.

Canadian trucking company ordered to reinstate driver fired for drinking and driving

A Quebec trucking company has been ordered to reinstate a driver who was fired after she drank at least nine beers before she lost control of her truck on a Pennsylvania highway.

The driver’s actions amounted to serious misconduct, but her drinking was the result of a disability — alcoholism — and trucking company Groupe Robert should have made a 'reasonable accommodation for her,' labour arbitrator said in her written July 18 decision.

“The night of the accident, she needed to drink,” labour arbitrator said. “She admitted that even though she knew she shouldn’t, the need was stronger, like something that she couldn’t control.”

The driver told the arbitrator the company could have installed an alcohol testing device in her truck after the crash, or found other work for her.

The audacity!
