The United Church of Canada affirms that gender and sexuality are gifts of God, and that all persons are made in the image of God. The United Church denounces the emerging amendments to policies and legislation across provinces in Canada, and indeed in many parts of the world; these changes roll back safety and legal protections for 2SLGBTQIA+ people, particularly transgender and non-binary youth. We invite tangible actions from the people of the United Church to be in solidarity with 2SLGBTQIA+ peoples, in response to these proposed policy changes.
