Alberta Judge Grants Injunction Blocking a Transgender Health-Care Bill

  • An Alberta judge issued a temporary injunction on July 1, 2025, blocking Bill 26, which banned gender-affirming care for youth under 16.
  • Bill 26, introduced by Alberta’s United Conservative government and passed late last year, aimed to bar doctors from administering treatments like puberty suppression and hormone interventions to individuals under the age of 16.
  • The injunction followed a court challenge by LGBTQ2 organizations and families citing Charter violations and arguing the law causes irreparable harm to gender-diverse youth.
  • Justice Allison Kuntz stated the law raises serious issues and halted it to prevent ‘irreparable harm’ until the matter is resolved in court.
  • The decision leaves medical decisions on gender-affirming care to doctors, patients, and parents for now, while the legal debate continues.
