If you really want to know: 

The heart of the issue is in the English language itself. Seemingly everyone is aware of this. It might even be fair to say that it is a vulnerability that largely is  consciously exploited (to a variable degree) to cause a sort of dissonance in a sense of belonging within the society, or in identity and conceptualising 'self'; which is central to Western society: the individual. So inadvertently, when you try to engage in conversation on this topic, people are inclined to interpret it as a threat in one sense or another even subconsciously  due to linguistic relativity. This may explain why Canada has taken the stance that they have. It is also why the public discussion of formalising other gender pronouns has been discussed, as well as why Jordan Peterson is opposed to surgical solutions as a sort of standard practice when treating someone who is experiencing anguish surrounding gender identity.
