CLC rating: Pro-lgbt ideology
Rating Comments: On December 16, 2019, Councillor Watkins voted in City Council to pass a reckless and draconain by-law that bans all forms of counseling that radical LGBT activists disingenuously define as "conversion therapy". The ban is likely to apply to all corporations, churches and non-profit associations within St. Albert city limits. This totalitarian ban now makes it illegal for persons who experience unwanted gender identity confusion or same-sex attraction from being able to procure either clinical psychotherapy or counseling to overcome their unwanted condition or to leave the transsexual/gay lifestyle. This by-law is completely at odds with the moral teachings of Christianity, to which Watkins implies his adherence in his Council profile.
