Campaign Life Coalition has already registered as a third-party advertiser with Elections New Brunswick ahead of the Oct. 21 race, previously telling Brunswick News it plans to issue a voters’ guide and other materials.

Under third-party advertising rules, individuals and groups are entitled to each spend up to $17,600 province-wide on election advertising during the official campaign period.

However, Elections New Brunswick has acknowledged it doesn’t have the power to investigate complaints of collusion between groups, political parties and candidates to get around spending-limit rules. It also doesn’t have the power to levy administrative fines if parties are found to be in violation of the rules.

Elections New Brunswick asked for both of those powers in a 2019 electoral reform report submitted to the legislature. Only two out of 108 reform recommendations in the report were acted upon, according to Elections New Brunswick.

Here in the States, standard practice is to "correct" visibly intersex births into being either male or female. Often they let the parents choose. Often, these operations have lifelong consequences for the child, and they have absolutely no say whatsoever.

If this practice is done in Canada as well, it stands in direct contradiction to the notion that "God doesn't make mistakes". Anyone who makes this claim should be pressed for comment on intersex "correction" surgeries.

While tans identities and intersex status aren't the same thing, usually a person's dismissal of intersex conditions is a bright red flag for their views on trans issues.
