No plans in Ottawa for conversion therapy bylaw, mayor says after Kingston moves toward ban Craig Lord © THE CANADIAN PRESS/Justin Tang A man walks under Moving Surfaces, a giant steel and light sculpture at Ottawa s Lansdowne Park, as it is lit up in the colours of the rainbow, during Pride Week on Saturday, Aug. 25, 2018. Ottawa’s mayor and city staff tell Global News there are no plans to put forward a bylaw to regulate conversion therapy after Kingston became the first city in Ontario to announce its intention to ban the practices municipally. Conversion therapy refers to a range of practices designed to repress or change a person’s sexual orientation, behaviour or gender identity, according to No Conversion Canada, a group lobbying to outlaw such practices across the country. Conversion therapy can take many forms, including exorcism-like ceremonies, forced fasting or extreme isolation, among others.
