🏋️‍♂️ Team Canada powerlifting coach, Avi Silverberg just broke the Alberta WOMEN's bench press record in the 84+ kg category at the "Heroes Classic." Former record holder, trans-identifying male, Anne Andres had a front row view as Silverberg mocked the discriminatory CPU policy by also unofficially breaking the women's... world record in the event.

Outrage in the sport began after disrespectful post from trans-identifying male powerlifter went viral months ago

Protests began at the Canadian National Championships

More male athletes need to do this in all sports where TIMs are allowed. Take it all and burn it all down. Show everyone how preposterous and unfair their policies are when they include males in women's categories to spare their feelings.

I can't get enough of this guy, Avi for prime minister. It takes real balls to do this. I said this all along, any man can change their documents to say they are a woman then go in and take records. Finally someone did it for the women and proved policy is a disgrace.

Yaasss queen! 🙌🏾

@ripx4nutmeg I wonder how ‘Anne’ felt having his record smashed by a hairy arsed bloke.

Please... people... read this line again: "Silverberg mocked the discriminatory CPU policy"

No they didn't break any record, it still stands with the last woman who won it.

Good, what are the tras gonna say, that he's not allowed 😂😂

As much as I hate that someone has to do this to call out the absurdity, this will at least help drive the conversation. If this is the game that the trans advocates want to play fine but you will destroy women's sports in the process. Considering 50% of the population if female I don't think this a winning position no matter how much it is propped up by certain people.
