Preamble
Whereas conversion therapy causes harm to the persons who are
subjected to it;
Whereas conversion therapy causes harm to society because,
among other things, it is based on and propagates myths and
stereotypes about sexual orientation, gender identity and gender
expression, including the myth that heterosexuality, cisgender
gender identity, and gender expression that conforms to the sex
assigned to a person at birth are to be preferred over other sexual
orientations, gender identities and gender expressions;
And whereas, in light of those harms, it is important to discourage
and denounce the provision of conversion therapy in order to
protect the human dignity and equality of all Canadians;
Conversion Therapy
Definition of conversion therapy
320.101
In sections 320.102 to 320.104, conversion therapy
means a practice, treatment or service designed to
(a) change a person’s sexual orientation to heterosexual;
(b) change a person’s gender identity to cisgender;
(c) change a person’s gender expression so that it conforms to the
sex assigned to the person at birth;
2
(d) repress or reduce non-heterosexual attraction or sexual
behaviour;
(e) repress a person’s non-cisgender gender identity; or
(f) repress or reduce a person’s gender expression that does not
conform to the sex assigned to the person at birth.
For greater certainty, this definition does not include a practice,
treatment or service that relates to the exploration or development
of an integrated personal identity — such as a practice, treatment
or service that relates to a person’s gender transition — and that
is not based on an assumption that a particular sexual orientation,
gender identity or gender expression is to be preferred over
another.

The Gospel is the power of God for salvation
a. Revealed
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God
for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also
to the Greek.

faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

Because the unrighteousness of men
suppress the truth (the righteousness of God)

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their
unrighteousness suppress the truth.

For what can be known about God is plain to them, because
God has shown it to them.
20 For his invisible attributes, namely,
his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived,
ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been
made.
So they are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God,
they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they
became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were
