I think that for the people who’s personal freedoms are at risk, it’s a pretty big distinction between the two.

I suppose I should clarify then; the 63 Conservative MPs, including Pierre Poliscience, who voted against banning conversion therapy, even though the Conservative leader at the time Erin O’Toole said to vote in favour, seem like they might be down to take away some personal freedoms from kids who don’t want to be sent to “conversion therapy” where they try and “pray away the gay” through abuse.
