REGINA Regina city council has sent a bylaw to ban conversion therapy to a third reading next month. “This is just one of those things we can do to express our support and signal that we are looking to be more inclusive, Regina Mayor Sandra Masters said. Council debated the bylaw in a meeting that lasted close to seven hours on Wednesday afternoon. Nearly 30 delegates presented to council on the issue. The unamended bylaw passed the second reading 9-1, with Ward 10 councillor Landon Mohl voting against it. Mohl had put forward an amendment to add a previously removed exemption back into the bylaw that would allow therapy for “Repressing or reducing sexual attraction or behaviour for any purpose unrelated to a desire to be heterosexual, including for the purpose of managing sexual addiction or maintaining celibacy.”
