A Canadian transgender activist once praised by former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government is facing fierce backlash after posting a chilling public message that appeared to reveal the location of author J.K. Rowling's private yacht.
Morgane Oger — a controversial figure in the LGBTQ+ advocacy world — sparked outrage after tracking Rowling's yacht near Vancouver and inviting the author to a 'chit chat' in what many are calling a thinly veiled threat.
'Billionaire boating bigots prefer trans-inclusive vacationing spots such as British Columbia. Am I right, @jk_rowling?' Oger wrote.
'Enjoy our hospitable province, don't forget to tip, but maybe don't stay too long. Stop by English Bay and come for drinks or a bbq if you'd like a chit chat between just us yachties.'
The message, tinged with both sarcasm and hostility, immediately triggered a wave of condemnation online.
