Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announces new proposed legislation prohibiting gender reassignment surgeries for minors and placing restrictions on hormone therapy and puberty blockers for youth, with the exception of 16- and 17-year-olds, who will be required to obtain parental, doctor, and psychologist approval.

Smith also says the proposed legislation will require parental notification for a teacher or staff member to change a child's name or pronoun and publicly use that new name or pronoun in a classroom setting or assembly.

Additionally, Smith says the proposed legislation will require parents to opt in if a teacher wishes to discuss gender identity, sexual orientation, or human sexuality.

Finally, Smith says the proposed legislation will include a prohibition on individuals born biologically male from competing in girls' or women's sports.
