REGINA Regina City Council has approved a draft bylaw banning conversion therapy in the city. The bylaw will be presented on July 14. At that time council will have the ability to debate the bylaw and make any amendments. Mayor Sandra Masters said council members now have time to consult with organizations about what the bylaw could mean. “Just ensuring that their concerns are heard, and if there is a slight language tweak that that could be allowed for when it comes back,” Masters said. The bylaw will be similar to the one made in Saskatoon, banning the business activity of conversion therapy in the city. Mayor Sandra Masters said members of the LGBT2QS+ were asking for council to make a decision.
