Bill C-6, which is being promoted by PM Justin Trudeau and the Liberal party, would punish treatment of children for gender dysphoria or homosexuality with up to five years in prison. 

Parents seeking to treat their children and priests advertising spiritual counseling would be liable to imprisonment under the bill. C-6 also would rewrite sections of Canadian law to classify what it defines as "conversion therapy" alongside child pornography and obscenity.

Campaign Life Coalition, a top Canadian pro-life and pro-family organization, protested the legislation from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, led by Campaign Life's David Cooke.

"It's not enough for Bill C-6 to be tweaked, to be revised, just to fix the definition. We can't do that," Cooke declared. "This bill has to go, totally and completely, no comprise. There is nothing here that can be good for us or for any Canadian." Thousands of Canadians have signaled their agreement, adding their names to Campaign Life Coalition's petition against C-6, which has garnered over 16,000 signatures so far.

As Campaign Life Coalition detailed, the "shocking results" of Bill C-6 would include extreme restrictions on the "freedom of religion, conscience, expression, the press." Priests and pastors would face jail time "for publicly preaching repentance to homosexuals," they said.

"Parents will be jailed for five years for teaching their children to accept their biological gender, or to reject sexual immorality," Campaign Life added. "Books, videos, web sites, TV programs, and perhaps the Bible itself will be censored and banned for espousing the traditional view of sexuality and gender," as well.

"Every Bible-believing church in Canada practices conversion therapy, that's what this bill says," Cooke warned at the protest on Friday. "It's not called persecution, but it surely is persecution. What else do you call a piece of legislation that denounces and criminalizes our beliefs, our Scriptures, and our practices as Christians?" he continued...
