April Hutchinson is a Team Canada Canada female power weightlifter from London, Ontario. Ms. Hutchinson has been very vocal about a transgender powerlifter setting new records for competitions in the sport at the 2023 Western Canadian Championship Female Masters Unequipped category. The transgender athlete Anne Andres, a biological male who identifies as a woman lifted a final score of 597kg, over 200kg more than her closest opponent. April Hutchinson argues Andres’ victory establishes "records which will never be broken by a woman."

The Canadian Powerlifting Union's gender self-identification Trans Inclusion Policy announced earlier this year allows athletes to compete with the gender they self-identify with as vs biological birth.

April Hutchinson and other female athletes wrote letters of objection to the CPU and some female weightlifters dropped out of the competition because of Andres’ participation.

The International Powerlifting Federation has now given its Canadian counterpart an ultimatum, declaring the CPU must align with IPF rules on transgender competitors and provide government-issued ID with their gender identity.

Meanwhile, the International Chess Federation announced transgender women are barred from competing in official events for females until an assessment of gender is made by officials.  

Guest: April Hutchinson. Team Canada champion weightlifter.
