Auger was born male and fathered children but now acts as female. Mr. Whatcott argued that if Auger is confused about his sexually identity and rebelling against the law of God, he might not make a very good <b>MLA<\/b>. Auger, running for the <b>NDP<\/b>, hoped to be the first transgendered <b>MLA<\/b>. Whatcott&#8217;s leaflet went viral on the social media. He was assaulted and cursed by some in the heavily homosexual riding. In one building, two beefy lesbians rushed him and tried to drive him out. Whatcott feels he influenced many Chinese who received the leaflet. The Chinese take a traditional approach to sexuality. Auger was narrowly defeated and Whatcott&#8217;s witnessing may well have played a role. Predictably, all three parties &#8212; <b>Liberals, NDP<\/b> and <b>Greens<\/b> &#8212; denounced Whatcott. Vengeance came swiftly. Shortly after the election,\u00a0 on May 22, Auger filed a complaint of discrimination with the <b>British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal.<\/b> He claimed Mr. Whatcott&#8217;s leaflets exposed the transgendered to &#8220;hatred or contempt&#8221;, And, of course, among other things, he wanted money &#8212; \u00a0&#8220;damages for injury to his dignity and reputation.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Mr. Whatcott filed a spirited response: &#8220;I refuse to refer to the complainant as &#8216;Morgane.&#8217; Morgane is a French female name. The baby boy who was named <b>Ronan Oger<\/b> at the time of his birth is and always will be a biological male and should have a male name that reflects his biological sex.\u00a0 I am writing this letter to request the <b>BC Human Rights Commission<\/b> dismiss <b>Ronan Oger\u2019s<\/b> human rights complaint against me.\u00a0 As <b>Dr. Paul McHugh<\/b> in his article \u00a0&#8230; \u201c<i>Transgenderism: A Pathogenic Meme<\/i>\u201d correctly pointed out, \u201cTransgendered men do not become women, nor do transgendered women become men.\u201d While <b>Ronan Oger<\/b> may believe himself to be a woman and while his fervent activism seems to indicate he wants everyone else to believe he is a woman, the reality that is rooted in biology clearly testifies that Ronan is a man. No government identification with a fake gender designation, no media decorum guide insisting on the use of fake pronouns, no human rights commission ruling trying to silence the truth that God has created two sexes, male and female and they cannot be changed, is going to change what is reality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/u\/0\/?ui=2&amp;ik=521f6a8f50&amp;view=fimg&amp;th=15cc6c80c8d6921c&amp;attid=0.1&amp;disp=emb&amp;realattid=ii_15cc6c80c8d6921c&amp;attbid=ANGjdJ8f90x_BF7laBXKzGFI52s3gPRl8dkkTcO-Fth1f6msnfT2b3bK9i63Et2zmYIlEgDVOZ-l4XDlwMr8k4lqFuM-fbbEFco9m-QX6wIivkZmEzHCMYNRMkq8CVk&amp;sz=s0-l75&amp;ats=1497983618828&amp;rm=15cc6c80c8d6921c&amp;zw\" alt=\"Inline image 1\" width=\"373\" height=\"562\" data-surl=\"https:\/\/mail.google.com\/mail\/u\/0\/?ui=2&amp;ik=521f6a8f50&amp;view=fimg&amp;th=15cc6c8179657db5&amp;attid=0.1&amp;disp=emb&amp;realattid=ii_15cc6c80c8d6921c&amp;attbid=ANGjdJ-Jpnrn6xKlvQJ1W8-hdlBXMIBaI2VwvAStp1rGLoyEedQqxY2xitLS27U7hPykG1ByaYgmnC2qiftkF0FOzeC9LWCrtbNAm_GDskxgJhPbb5mc5RuIbD3Zfzo&amp;sz=s0-l75&amp;ats=1497983621217&amp;rm=15cc6c8179657db5&amp;zw\" \/><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><br \/>\nWhile Ronan\u2019s complaint alleges my truthful flyer (validated by attached studies and opinion articles) has attacked his \u201cdignity, feelings, reputation and self respect,\u201d the fact is he chose to run as an <b>NDP<\/b> candidate in a provincial election. I\u2019ve attached two <b><u>Globe &amp; Mail<\/u><\/b> articles written by him. In one article Ronan disparages social conservatives in the <b>Christy Clark<\/b> government and clearly insinuates if one expresses an opinion that so-called transgenderism is problematic, that such an opinion according to Ronan could render a politician unsuitable for political office. The other article argues that people should be able to identify as whatever suits them when it suits them.<\/p>\n<p>A practical outworking of the flawed philosophy that people should be able to self-identify and switch genders as they see fit is co-ed bathrooms and <i>de facto<\/i> co-ed women\u2019s shelters. Thanks to ideas like Ronan\u2019s actually being implemented in Ontario. A deaf woman was sexually assaulted by a male sex offender who self identified as a \u201ctrans-woman\u201d to gain access to a women\u2019s homeless shelter in Toronto where he was able to gravely harm a vulnerable biological woman. The <b>University of Toronto<\/b> reported males trying to film females when they were bathing in \u201ctrans-friendly\u201d change rooms without the women\u2019s consent. At the <b>University of Calgary<\/b> panic buttons exist in the bathrooms now that they are co-ed due to so-called transgender ideology. Before this madness became policy panic buttons were not needed in segregated sex bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly Ronan has a political agenda that is informed by his transvestite identity and activism. (Ronan is not \u201ctransgender\u201d nor is any other human being \u201ctransgender\u201d who identifies as such.) Ronan has not and never will \u201ctransform\u201d into a female, he will only ever be a male who cross dresses and who, unfortunately, \u00a0appears to be using female hormones to give himself feminine characteristics. As a BC resident I perceive that Ronan\u2019s political advocacy for homosexuality and cross dressing, not to mention his antipathy towards social conservatives who do not agree with his ideology, is going to have a negative impact on me and my community. Therefore, as far as I am concerned I have a civic duty to speak frankly and without inhibitions imposed by political correctness or vague human rights codes, on so-called transgenderism and its harmful effects on <b>BC<\/b> in ridings like <b>Vancouver-False Creek<\/b> where it looked possible that a transvestite was going to win the riding and use [his] political power to impose a harmful agenda on my province.\u00a0 I hope this helps in assisting the <b>BC Human Rights Tribunal<\/b> in arriving at the only conclusion that is consistent with moral coherence, true democratic principles, and biological reality; that you will toss Ronan (he is not <b>Morgane) Oger\u2019s<\/b> spurious human rights complaint into the waste basket immediately.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"gmail-m_-8563999193508237764gmail-MsoNoSpacing\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">A Tribunal slap down was swift in coming. Tribunal chairman <b>Walter Rilkoff<\/b>, in a June 9 letter, threatened Mr. Whatcott with financial penalties for not referring to Ronan as a &#8220;she&#8221;. &#8220;The complainant\u00a0 is entitled to use her name in the complaint process. It is certainly not for Mr. Whatcott to determine what the Complainant will call herself, and his unilateral attempt to do so is disrespectful and will not be tolerated.\u00a0 If Mr. Whatcott chooses not to use the name <b>&#8216;Morgane Oger&#8217;<\/b> or refer to Ms Oger as she or her, he may use &#8216;the Complainant&#8217;. &#8230; He may not refer to the Complainant as <b>&#8216;Ronan Oger&#8217;,<\/b> &#8216;Mr. Oger&#8217;, &#8216;he&#8217; or &#8216;him&#8217;.
