Protesters on the steps of the Alberta legislature on Sunday had a message for Premier Danielle Smith and the UCP ahead of the fall session.

At issue for protesters are proposed changes to the Alberta Bill of Rights and transgender policy.

“In this fall session, these are the people that are going to be most impacted, not just the kids but the Trans community,” said Lois Dewar.

“The full suite of legislation introduced this session will see Alberta be a leader in Canada, enshrining fundamental rights while simultaneously ensuring the province remains a haven for job-creating investment with strong, business-friendly policies,” government house leader Joseph Schow said in a statement.
