Oh goody, they’ve ruined ice skating too. Can you image 2 men or women or even 2 trannies ice skating together? People will turn them off

Skate Canada has revised its policy to allow any two athletes, regardless of their gender identities, for domestic competition.
On Tuesday, Canada’s governing body for figure skating announced that the definition of “team” in the podium pathway for pair and ice dance teams would be changed to “a team consists of two skaters.”

The previous definition of ‘team’ was one woman and one man. According to the news release, this definition was “inconsistent with Skate Canada’s vision of Skating for Everyone and Skate Canada’s commitment to non-discrimination, including non-discrimination based on gender identity.”
Skate Canada’s Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (EDIA) Operating Committee drafted and unanimously endorsed the recommendation to the committee in July 2022. The motion was presented to Skate Canada’s Board of Directors in September 2022, and it was unanimously approved.
“By updating the definition of team, many individuals in the figure skating community in Canada will have new opportunities to embrace the sport. This change is about removing barriers to participation in skating, and we believe it will have a significant impact in ensuring all gender identities are recognised and accepted equally and without prejudice,” said Karen Butcher, President, Skate Canada.
“This change has been collectively endorsed by Skate Canada and will allow for new and exciting partnerships in the pair and ice dance disciplines to compete at the national level. Skate Canada is privileged to continue the advancement of skating in Canada by making rule and policy change that allows everyone to experience the joy of skating,” she continued.
