Abstract

ABSTRACT News reporting on transgender youth between 2011 and 2019 in Canada is increasingly affirming of transgender identities, experiences, and needs. These news stories are also increasingly initiated by parent/caregiver advocates of trans youth. We trace the recent history of news coverage of transgender youth to provide for the first time a history of parent advocacy as a social movement in Canada. This movement began in urban centres by cis, white, professional women, but is increasingly representative of rural, Black, Indigenous, and people of colour (BIPOC), and diverse caregiver advocates of transgender youth.
