Canadian powerlifter says she REFUSES to compete against trans athletes as biological male sets record – ‘It’s pretty sad’

Canadian powerlifter April Hutchinson has vowed to never compete against trans athletes in a criticism of the “sad affair” of sport.

It comes after trans athlete Ann Andres claimed the gold medal at the Canadian Powerlifting Union’s women’s regional championship earlier this month.

Andres, a 6’2 athlete, lifted 1,327lbs, calculated from the combined weight of squat, bench and deadlift.

The 40-year-old beat her(sic) closest competition by a staggering 470lbs and achieved the second highest deadlift in women’s weightlifting history in the process.
