I can’t find any other source for this or discussion of it so far; I hope it won’t be ignored.
They can’t be against the mutilation of the genitals of girls and women? Why not? Aren’t girls and women people too, as entitled to the protection of the state against violence as any other people? Is it because the practice is considered religious? Is it ok to cut people’s arms off if it’s a religious practice? Is there any limit on what religion is allowed to do to people?

To do to people, or to do to girls?
Considering they have misspelled Saskatchewan, I have some doubts. People who live there are usually fairly good at spelling it.

Not to be too ideefixe, but maybe they’re holding off until they can come up with some way to distinguish between FGM and “gender-affirming” surgery.
Concern about sensitive community issues?
If they take a stand on FGM, someone will eventually think about ‘MGM.’ Which will trespass upon the Sincere Religious Beliefs™ of ‘Communities.’
