Conversion therapy was the subject of hours of discussion Wednesday at the community wellness committee in Regina.
The recommendation on the table is that Mayor Sandra Masters write a letter in support of Bill C-6, the federal bill in the works that will ban conversion therapy.
"Conversion Therapy can be described as a practice that seeks to change a person's sexual orientation to heterosexual, to repress non-heterosexual attraction or behaviours, or to change an individual's gender identity to match the sex they were assigned at birth," a report from the city reads, in part.
