Now that the LPC government has tabled Bill C-4, it's probably a good time to examine the two terms that are inevitably going to be argued about the most with this legislation. Specifically, I want to talk about the terms "Conversion Therapy" and "Affirmative Therapy".
I will be doing this primarily through the lens of mental health therapy, although in the coming debate over Bill C-4, you can expect that to get conflated with medical interventions such as surgeries or hormone therapies. The relationship between mental health and medical interventions is a separate matter that will be addressed in another article.
