Dear [Candidate Name],

My name is Jayce Wilson, and my pronouns are they/them. As a member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in Alberta, I am deeply invested in the political landscape of our province and the issues that affect our community.

I have created a blog – WilsonWireless.com – as a platform to engage with readers on a variety of topics, including politics, social justice, and 2SLGBTQIA+ issues. As part of my mission to better inform my readers, I would like to ask you four questions regarding your stance on 2SLGBTQIA+ issues.

  1. The healthcare system can be particularly challenging for 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals, who may face discrimination from healthcare providers or have unique healthcare needs, such as access to Hormone replacement therapy and gender-affirming surgeries. What steps would you take to improve the healthcare experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals in our province?
  2. Schools can be a challenging environment for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, who may face bullying and discrimination. What specific policies would you support to make schools safer and more welcoming for all students, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity?
  3. Research has shown that transgender youth are at a higher risk of experiencing abuse and rejection from their families, which can lead to negative outcomes such as homelessness, mental health issues, and suicide. What policies would you support to ensure that transgender youth have access to safe and supportive housing options and resources to help them if they are experiencing abuse or rejection from their families?
  4. Universal Basic Income has been proposed as a potential solution to address income inequality and poverty. Research has shown that UBI can have significant benefits for marginalized communities, including the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, which may face higher rates of poverty and discrimination. What policies would you support to implement UBI, and how do you believe it could specifically benefit the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in terms of reducing poverty, improving mental health outcomes, and promoting social inclusion?

I look forward to hearing your thoughtful responses to these questions. As someone who is passionate about improving the lives of 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals in Alberta, I believe that your responses will be of great interest to my readers.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Jayce Wilson
