Canada Faces Pressure to Provide Safe Haven for America's Trans Community Following Trump's Gender Order

  In the wake of President Donald Trump's recent executive order, which mandates the recognition of only two sexes—male and female—there is growing pressure on the Canadian government to offer refuge to America's transgender community. The order, signed on Trump's first day back in office, has sparked widespread concern and backlash, particularly among LGBTQ+ advocates.

Trump Appoints In-Laws to Key International Roles

 


In a move that underscores his reliance on trusted family members, President-elect Donald Trump has appointed his in-laws, Charles Kushner and Massad Boulos, to significant international positions. This decision marks the second time in as many days that Trump has selected family members for key roles in his administration.

Charles Kushner, the father of Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, has been named the U.S. ambassador to France. Kushner, a billionaire real estate developer, was previously convicted on federal charges but received a pardon from Trump in 2020. His appointment is expected to play a pivotal role in engaging with the French government, a key partner in enforcing the ceasefire in Lebanon and countering Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Massad Boulos, the father-in-law of Trump's daughter Tiffany, has been appointed as the senior adviser on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs. Boulos, a billionaire businessman with significant interests in Nigeria and strong connections in Lebanon, was a key figure in Trump's campaign outreach to Arab American voters. His new role positions him as a central figure in post-war efforts for regional peace.

Trump's reliance on family members for critical posts has raised questions about conflicts of interest and nepotism. However, Trump has defended his choices, describing both Kushner and Boulos as accomplished leaders with extensive international experience.
