A Saskatchewan human rights commissioner has resigned over the province’s proposed legislation that would require schools to obtain parental consent if a student under 16 years of age wants to change their gender pronouns or identity. 
Heather Kuttai, who has a transgender son, said she believes the legislation puts vulnerable children at risk. “It felt personal,” she told The Canadian Press.
