A transgender advisor to the Minister for Women in Canada who slammed President Trump’s female sport ban is a runner who has dominated female categories.
Nathanielle Morin won a women’s 5km race by almost six minutes in Ottawa, Ontario back in February 2024 – demolishing the rest of her competition in the female category.
She recorded a time of 25 minutes and 32 seconds, placing her first and five minutes and 44 seconds ahead of the second place runner in the women’s 30-39 division.
The woman who came in third place was just 30 seconds behind second place, highlighting how close the division otherwise was.
Morin’s time granted her the pristigous title of ‘fastest female’ across all age divisions – beating out the talented young girl who won the 10-12 age division.
Morin is an advisor to parliamentarian Marci Ien, who serves in the Liberal government as the Minister of Women, Gender Equality and Youth.
After President Trump’s executive order banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s divisions, Morin hit out, insisting: ‘Exclusion and discrimination should not be the answer to transwomen in sport.
‘This is a sensitive topic, and some people have concerns that should be heard. However, there are better ways to assess those in a healthy way that does not promote hate.’

She also shared an infographic which stated that ‘trans women are women’, adding: ‘Research has shown that trans women are, in fact, not biological men… Excluding trans women hurts all women.
‘In order to exclude trans women, you must police all bodies in the women’s category. Any girl or woman can be accused of being transgender. At what point is a girl ”too good”, ”too masculine” or ”too tall” or ”too fast” or ”too strong” to be accused of being trans?’
Morin later said that running is like ‘meditation, therapy and self improvement’ for her, revealing she has nine competitions scheduled for 2025.
‘I am aware that my participation in so many competitions is and will be talked about because of my medical history.
‘The situation in the United States and comments of certain politicians do not help either… I have undergone a medical transition. I consider that I have the legitimacy to participate in the right category, unless the law prohibits me from doing so.’
Morin noted that in Canada there is no law stopping her from entering female categories, but vowed to ‘comply with local laws’ for international competitions.
Shortly after returning to the White House for his second stint as President, Trump vowed to ensure that no transgender athletes participated in women’s sports at the 2028 summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
Trump surrounded himself with female athletes and activists at the White House to sign an executive order barring trans participation in women’s sports.

The order uses Title IX, a law against sex discrimination in taxpayer-funded education programs, to ban transgender girls and women from participating in female school sports activities.
Trump said his new Secretary of State Marco Rubio ‘is going to make clear to the International Olympic Committee’ that ‘America categorically rejects transgender lunacy.’
‘We want them to change everything having to do with the Olympics and having to do with this absolutely ridiculous subject,’ Trump went on.
In response, the NCAA adapted new rules that will only allow people to compete in women’s sports if they were assigned female at birth.
In a press release from the NCAA, the body’s president, Charlie Baker, said there are more than 530,000 NCAA athletes. At a senate hearing in December of 2024, Baker said he was aware of ‘less than 10’ are transgender – meaning this policy goes to the lengths of banning 0.0018 percent of athletes.
‘We strongly believe that clear, consistent, and uniform eligibility standards would best serve today’s student-athletes instead of a patchwork of conflicting state laws and court decisions,’ Baker said in the press release.
‘To that end, President Trump’s order provides a clear, national standard.’
This new NCAA policy goes into effect immediately and applies to all athletes regardless of previous eligibility reviews under the governing body’s previous transgender participation policy.
