“The motion seeks the Court’s recognition that CAWSBAR is the appropriate party to advance a landmark constitutional challenge to the federal government’s practice of placing trans-identifying male inmates in women’s prisons,” the JCCF stated in a December 8 press release.

“The lawsuit seeks to protect incarcerated women who might not feel safe challenging this policy, given the potential for institutional consequences or effects on their parole.”

The underlying lawsuit challenges Correctional Service Canada’s “Directive 100: Gender Diverse Offenders,” which permits trans-identifying male criminals to be put into women’s prisons, and which CAWSBAR argues violates the Charter Rights of female inmates, including “their section 7 right to life, liberty and security of the person, their section 12 right not to be subjected to cruel and unusual treatment, and their section 15 right to equality as female persons.”

If the motion is granted, CAWSBAR will gain the public interest standing to “pursue litigation on behalf of incarcerated women who are afraid that bringing their own claim would result in institutional repercussions or prejudicing their parole review,” JCCF stated. The motion will be heard on March 3, 2026.

“No woman should be at risk of abuse or violence at the hands of a man while they are serving a sentence in a federal institution,” said constitutional lawyer Chris Fleury. “Granting standing to CAWSBAR will give a voice to women who have been silenced by a fear of reprisal.”
