March 31, 2023 - International Trans Day of Visibility - St. John's Event 12.15 pm out from of the Rooms

Friday March 31, 2023 is the 15th annual International Trans Day of Visibility.

Recent events in Nashville USA have caused a global backlash of threats and hate against members of the Trans Community.

It is more important than ever to give Trans people a platform to be seen and heard and given a chance to attain equality and happiness in life.

Newfoundland trans pioneer, Jennifer McCreath is putting together a last minute event and invite everyone to come out to commemorate this day.

It will be short and informal, but there will be a few speeches, and a trans flag available for photo ops. Prominent local LGBTQ leaders, politicians, and others have all been invited to attend.

The media is welcome and encouraged to attend as well.

International Trans Day of Visibility is still March 31. Let's not forget!

Well, it doesn't seem like there is much talk about the trans community lately, at least in terms of TDOV. I'm hoping to put together some sort of last-minute event. Stay tuned!

Jenn says 2023 already the worst year of her life.

You could write a sad country song about my 2023 so far. the health care system won't fix my knee, the deputy minister of FFA won't give me the job that i won fair and square in a competition, and the sperm i paid $5000 to store in a freezer for 16 years so i could have biological children later in life, are now going in the garbage.. no wife, no kids, no house, now car, and a job that barely pays half of bills. bankruptcy, law suit(s) and human rights complaint(s) on the horizon.. oh what a life!!! the future sure ain't what it used to be!!!!! I think it's officially time for me to admit that Jennifer McCreath will never make it here in Newfoundland and Labrador. I'm just too far ahead of my times, and the discrimination i face here will never be overcome. serious thinking to do ahead now as a contemplate whether or not to renew my apartment lease for another year, or give my notice and literally leave and go somewhere else and start my life over again from scratch with a clean slate and lots of scars. Advice anyone??

BREAKING NEWS: Jennifer McCreath Quits NDP!

 Jennifer McCreath has resigned her membership from the NL NDP and Federal NDP effective immediately. More to come.

Brief Update! Jenn returning to NL Public Service!

Wow, looks like it has been 6 months since my last blog post. Interesting that my last post took note that the NL Provincial Liberals were running a trans candidate in the provincial election. Little did I know at the time that the NL NDP would also be running a trans candidate, and that the trans candidate would be me!

And oh my, what an election it was. A Covid-19 outbreak caused the last-minute cancellation of in person voting on polling day, and a series of what seemed to be daily ad-hoc changes to the election rules, that would eventually be challenged in court (cases still ongoing as of this writing).

 Those interested in my election campaign should check out  www.youtube.com/jenniferpoco/videos as there are several archived videos there.

Meanwhile, I am excited to announce that I will be returning to the NL Department of Justice, in the near future, in a new role.  I will be doing Information Management work in a junior clerical-admin capacity.  Not necessarily my dream job,  but a big step in the right direction as I continue to build up my skills and experiences.  With this in mind, I will likely be drastically toning down my social media comments as they relate to provincial Government justice matters, as I do not want to be perceived to be in any type of conflict of interest. I will, however, continue to advocate for equal rights and equality for members of the trans community. That, is definitely never going to change.  

I will try to write blog posts more frequently going forward, but I can't guarantee anything!

Cheers to everyone,

Jenn

McCreath Says Trans Candidate on Major NL Party Ticket good news towards Trans Equality

Wow, so it looks like the NL Liberals are going to put at least one openly-trans person on the ballot for our next provincial election. This appears to be the first time a major party in NL has done such a bold thing.

For what it's worth, I don't support the NL Liberals and I don't support this candidate. (But those are two other stories for two different days)

However, politics aside, I recognize that a major political party putting a trans person on a ballot is a very huge statement. Let' hope this milestone will act as another step up for trans people as a whole, in terms of the progress for all of us being recognized as equals and us being taken seriously and us being given a chance to partake and contribute to the political process and society as a whole.

So, for this, I celebrate today! #nlpoli
