This week, the Canadian advisor to the Federal Minister of Women, Nathanielle Morin, issued a statement defending her participation in women's marathons and other running events as a transgender biological male.

In the statement, Morin made reference to a recent executive order signed by President Donald Trump that forbids trans athletes from participating in women's and girls' sports.

In a statement Morin wrote. 

"I am aware that my participation in so many competitions will be talked about because of my medical history. The situation in the United States and the comments of certain politicians do not help either, With all due respect to the level I compete at (amateur recreational), the state of scientific research in the field (for the amateur recreational level) and the fact that I have undergone a medical transition, I consider that I have the legitimacy to participate in the right category, unless the law prohibits me from doing so. Let us remember that in Canada, no law prohibits it. As for other countries, I will comply with the local laws in force when it applies." 

Morin further discussed the advisor's status as a trans runner in a post on X. "Trans folks only want to fully integrate as their authentic self and be happy, in our society,"
