In Nov. 2025, The Needle opened an investigation into McMaster University’s collaboration with an anti-trans hate group which promotes pseudoscience about trans people. The Needle’s earlier coverage showed that SEGM paid over $300,000 CAD to the Canadian University to suit politically-aimed research objectives.
Now, according to a new batch of records released under Canada’s Freedom of Information laws, it is clear that SEGM’s control of the research went deeper than previously reported.
Why, if they believe they are right, and have science and facts on their side, do they keep persisting in fabricating lies to fit their narrative? Religious nutjob and LGBTQA+ hate groups have done this for years, and yet somehow they still think, that with all the experts against them, with science against them, they still think they are right?
Actually, I doubt many of them care whether they’re right or not. They just want to create suffering, and squeeze money out of confused right-wing types by lying to them.
