April Hutchinson delivered a deeply personal and impassioned speech on protecting women’s sports and standing against biological males competing in female divisions in an event put on by Regina Civic Action Awareness Network (RCAAN).
Hutchison began her speech by discussing her personal journey, including childhood sexual abuse that started at five years old by her neighbour, her struggles with identity, alcoholism, and a suicide attempt in 2018.
She became sober in 2019 after a month in rehab and took up powerlifting to channel her energy and rebuild her life.
Through that, she encountered a male athlete competing in her women’s division, who she calls “Mr. Andres.”
