What did you expect after those idiots out east passed bill C16? The problem is this ideology is rooted much deeper then this.
If you haven’t heard of Jordon Peterson yet look him up on YouTube. The mans a weapon.

Are we really there as a society now? This is what we have to do now to appease the masses? I must be getting old because this kinda thing makes me feel we are way past common sense anymore with this politically correct crap. Mr, Mrs, Mother or Father is now no good in the turdo governments eyes? Someones feelings get hurt now if we say those things?
Honest question, what percent of the population really has an issue with these gender specific titles? I would guess a very small percent.

What are they going to do with the French language now, with their masculine and feminine nouns?

When you're this big,
People call you mister.
Polite society is " Mr. Etowncanuck"??
Please call me " Etown"
it already exists the proper segue to allow a person to be called what they wish.
Polite society will then continue with as such.
I have a penis therefore I am male.
I am over the age of majority therefore I am addressed as "Mister"

I can tell you where I'm at.....
The first political party to offer nothing more than to put everything back to the way it was prior to 2015 gets my vote.
Don't care about you doing a dam thing more, just erase this nightmare and you're in..
I truly believe it would be cheaper to pay these current guys to just stay home and stare out the window.

At one point they say that public servants can call you whatever you want to be called,this could be interesting.

Are they going to halt sales of Mr. Big chocolate bars now too? Probably offends someone! Can't call a person big now either, that offends self body image.
What's good is bad, and bad is good according to what is being shoved down our throats.

Something soon is going to make this politically correct stuff go boom. We are close. The pendulum has swung hard left. I believe a hard right swing will result. There is no medium.

What about the military, is the whole Sir and Ma'am thing gone? Can I now sue the government for all those pushups I had to do in cadets when I accidentally called a Ma'am Sir? Making a child do pushup's, what a traumatic experience.
What about addressing foreign dignitaries? It was always taught to address people with the proper prefix as a sign of respect, to not do so was a sign of great disrespect. Well I guess anyone meeting with Trudope is already being disrespected by the nation as a whole anyways.

My choice huh... I think the "right honourable ..." sounds good. Sure initially they will balk but they are not allowed to question. After a few years with that on my file; cant you imagine the respect i will get

I've got a suggestion, if service Canada is interested in doing what they're paid to do... how about showing some accountability for the tax dollars I pay! Instead of wasting all these resources on all this gender bs! It's like they seem to think that All of the Canadian population is messed up and they feel a need to pander to us!
Like they're trying to make us feel like there's something wrong with us for not being messed up!
Enough Already! Focus on something important! Something that the population would be willing to spend resources on, rather than forcing us to pay for this nonsense.
That's my input on this subject.

Yup!
Let’s all make the honest effort to completely destroy the traditional family so our entire civilization goes down the toilet.
If service Canada wants to talk to me they can talk to me as an adult and not as if they are talking to a petulant child.
What is wrong with people #3.

We use to call people by thier rank and last name when addressing the officers...if we used Ma'am or Sir it was our way of saying "azzzz hole"....they would swell thier chests and smile while carrying their swollen head on out the door....now let's get back,to seeing the government...lots of ma'am Sirs there.

What is the point of asking a question if it doesn't matter what the answer is? If I can be whatever I want to feel like being, then maybe it isn't a valid question on the form / passport in the first place...
