The timing of the deficit is what would be expected if pregnant women in the province experienced elevated stress levels four months earlier; the impact on newborn sex ratio did not show up in conservative-leaning regions

Thousands of people gather at Toronto's Nathan Phillips Square to stand in solidarity with the Women’s March on Washington, on Jan. 21, 2017.Donald Trump’s election victory was a seismic shift in the U.S. political landscape and, for some, a source of uncertainty and stress that reverberated around the globe.

In their study, published Monday in the British Medical Journal, the Mount Sinai researchers present evidence that it was. Specifically, they show that the sex ratio of Ontario newborns shifted around March of 2017, when fewer boys than would typically be expected were born relative to girls.

Dr. Orzack said there was a need for more systematic scientific reporting of stressful events and their possible influence on the human sex ratio because analyses that show no influence are likely to be under-represented in the literature.

What is a boy? Can you define it please?

There's lots of data showing women are, for the first time in recent history, aborting more boys. Ontario leads other provinces in overall abortions. Maybe that might have something to do with the decline in male births (even if that doesn't fit the loonie Leftist narrative).

Has anyone asked those children born what they identify as? Maybe there are more boys born after all. Maybe even all of them are boys? Who from the Globe is assigning genders? (If you think my comment is pretty absurb; it fitting for this article that is just as absurd).

One of the least articulatly written and ridiculously researched articles I have ever read. We are actually supposed to take you seriously as an established, legitimate news source. Like the Toronto star, your days are numbered.

Whattttt ?

Wth is with the editors of Canadian newspapers that they would approve this total BS to be presented to us as a 'study' I actually thought better of the G&M (not really) but omg zero standards zero ethics and surprise surprise you are not the only one to print this drivel

Men determine sex of child

You people are absolute garbage

What the actual F globe? How is this even a story

PMckinstryl Because all the real issues are irrelevant, conservative bad/liberal good, propaganda at its finest, maybe the smoke and mirrors will work this time, there’s a lot of weak minded Canadians to lap this crap up

Wow! This is absolutely STUPID.

IQ’s dropped sharply in Ontario after 2015.

How the fuck did my taxes ended up paying for 💩 like this?

This paper needs to fold for good.

This is the idiot that wrote that garbage... 'Science reporter' Seems like it's a science fiction reporter.

And this is related to Trump how?

How dare you assume their gender.?!

Zero credibility propaganda that couldn't be more ridiculous

One thing for sure is more & more fake news has been exposed since Trump won the election.

So the Globe and Mail has thrown in the towel on professional journalism as well Just another rag posing as MSM!

What a ridiculous thing to write about. Thats all you got!

This is stupid and it’s ridiculous that there are researchers actually studying this.

More people ate chocolate ice cream after trump was elected .... sources say

Canada has too many 'journalists' if they can find time to write this garbage

is embarrassing itself. Learn the distinction between causal vs correlation

And you wonder why Canadian media is a punchline.

I suppose you could say fewer boys born in Ontario after Hillary Clinton and the Democrats lost the election!, but really who gives a 💩!. And who paid for such a ridiculous study?, had better not be our tax money!!. FFS..

More likely the fault of ballless Trudeau.

Wtf

FakeNews getting so sick of your propaganda. EpsteinCoverUp Expose CNN EpsteinDidn’tKillHimself NXIVM Qanon

Are you referring to 'boys' as being humans with external as opposed to internal genitalia. This is clearly an archaic view of gender, as regardless of physical characteristics, the post-2015 view is that there is no correlation between physiology and gender.

Ridiculous tweet of the day right here. Associating Trump presidency with male births in Ontario - or anywhere on the planet - is just really, really dumb.

Wtf does that have to do with the price of rice in China?

fake news...

Trudeau as a Feminist has caused all the female babies in Ontario? Fake & Smear Propaganda MSM has deflection stories, to steer away from Trudeau failings with Teck cancellation, Eco Terrorists, no banning of Border entry from South Korea, Italy, Iran, China. trudeaumustgo

You call yourselves professional news media? Causation/correlation is journo 101 and you failed hard. This crap is supposed to be keeping the state accountable? No wonder Trudeau is not held to account.

Seek Professional Help

How is this news?

This reminds me of that movie where the phone rings as a dopey guy is flushing the toilet - thus cementing a link in his mind that doesn't exist. If you ever needed evidence that the mongoloid stream bought and paid for media serve no purpose, look no further than this 'article.'

Climate Change

Someone got paid to study that....

WTF....

And who in the hell paid these shysters for this study? Why do they theorize that Trump winning election was a stressful event? I laughed really hard for about a week. Not sure that was stress.

Why mot instead blame the metoo movement?🤪

Holy F*ck!!! This is what Trump does to the media. They can't take it. They create conspiracies and ridiculous theories out of thin air. And then they wonder why no one believes the or respects them. Pull this article for god's sake.

Are you sure it’s not because most of the young men in ontario. Now have estrogen and soy running through theirs veins?

What?

Spurious correlation. Please do better.

Well there is ground breaking news!

WTF?

Keep spewing Nonsense

This is so stupid

The Globe and Fail

Is it not the sperm from the father that determines the sex of a baby? This whole article seems focused on 'stress' on women.

Of course the correlation is wrt POTUS and not the earlier elected Trudeau.

Someone else took my tax money for their failing business model.

Man. We have a man child who has actually done everything, many claim Trump has.

Trump destroys patriarchy. Feminists for Trump!

How about the fact that in Brampton, many Indian couples are having sexual-selective abortions? Really want to know what fake feminists think about sex selective abortions.

What TF nonsense is this? Correlation is not causation. This is plain stupid. fakenews EnemyOfThePeople

Lol. Dumbest article of 2020 so far. Congratulations.

If you're going to blame Trump for the decrease in boys being born in Ontario, then you need to give him credit for the increase in girls. Therefore by your own backwards TDS logic, Trump's a bigger feminist than Groper McGee 🤔

So when pregnant women are under severe stress they will likely have a girl?! GTFOH! So should we expect a surge of baby girls being born from this point on?🤦🏽‍♀️

'...that link sudden and traumatic events, such as mass shootings and terrorist attacks, to changes in sex ratio' You refer to Trump being elected as a 'traumatic event' and compare it to mass shootings / terrorist attacks? That's some next level Trump Derangement Syndrome 🤡🌎

Considering many of the conceptions would have been from the year 2015..but ya... OrangeManBad 🤪

Breaking news! Leap year is Trump’s fault. OMG he is adding another day to his presidency! Russia, Ukraine, North Korea, Cuba, China and a whole lot more countries participated. (Sarcasm)

Globe and Mail is a corrupt collaborator to Prog Hate. Media trash.

So..... depression causes girls? Happy people causes boys? Is THAT what you’re saying?!?

Someone actually spent time researching this and wtote an article? What a joke Global has become.

Wow, full blown TDS right here. Idiots

This once most prestigious newspaper in Canada has sunk to the depths of disparity with articles like this load of nonsense

I hate TRUMP!! and even to me this sounds like 'Fake News'!

What’s with these new parody accounts🙄

More boys aborted

How in God's name would the election of anyone have influence on the sex of babies born after said election. And how could you find this newsworthy. This is beyond ridiculous.

But one point the great academia don't mention in this article the dirty secret of Planed Abortions. Yes these pink hated woman who run around and hate everything a man has done. Sure as hell don't want to be raising a bastard. Let's abort it!

Probably adjusting numbers for those that are possibly trans, right?🙄 Fcking🤡

What has one got to do with the other?!!!!!

That means more girls were born? Thank goodness medically-assisted murder is legal in Canada.

And this is media worthy? What’s next? More ducks flying to Canada after Trump’s election? Why not? If you are going to report the most stupid info, you don’t deserve to be call a media. It’s garbage. Period...

Fewer readers in Ontario buy The Globe and Mail after they keep publishing BS articles, study finds.

LMAO !!! Are you shitting us ?

A classic example of a 'non sequitur'. And a classic example of yet another useless study.

Great journalism. What would one do if Trump wasn’t your every thought

So if the blip has gone back to normal this would suggest that progressive women have recovered from their 2016 Trump-hysteria and have come to realize that the sky isn't falling.

Why would this matter find it hard to believe a decrease in the birth of boys has anything to do with a US election, the stories put out just seem to get more ridiculous

An idea for your next story

Who do we have to thank for this important study? I hope millions of tax dollars were spent on this worthwhile study. Looking forward to more meaningful studies that will provide the questions to future answers on Jeopardy

Canada should mind your own business. Since Trump’s election, has he got anything to do with Canada? Whatever policy he put forward, it’s got nothing to do with Canada. Just unfortunately, Canada has a weak leader Trudeau, weak leadership both locally and internationally!

After Comrade Trudeau peed his estrogen all over Canada...we got more girls!

This the most dumb headline so far in 2020. I had to read it 3 times. So weird.

Articles like this is the reason that the G&M is irrelevant. Our country is in turmoil and this is the best that you can report on?

G&M is a absolute joke. 😀😀😀😀

Literally the dumbest thing I’ve read in years. Trump could cure death, and the Globe and Mail would run a piece about all the gravediggers that he put out of work.

RIP I'm sure the days of ppl reading your headlines is coming to a end! An Canada is better off with out you.

I find it funny how the doctor apparently attributes the reduced numbers of boys being born in Ontario to the stress caused by Trump and not the stress caused by years of a inept Liberal government. 🤪 TDS

WTF! 🤣🥇

Lol. what?

But Trudeau’s October 2015 win didn’t😁😁😁

Sex-selective abortions.

This is screwed up Why would Canadian fund this BS The real story is more girls born after Trudeau was elected

FFS. Only in the triggered pseudoacademiosphere would this tripe be considered for publication. BMJ we hardly knew ye, and now you are self-soiled in such a humiliating fashion.

More ridiculously nonsensical and stupid stories published in formerly decent newspapers after Trump’s 2016 election win. Nice mirror ya got there Globe.

Okay this brings jumping the shark to a whole new level. WTF?

Hey ScopeHockey

I hold respect for you guys, but what the hell did I just read?

So if there's some *really* traumatic event, like a war or famine, there would also be a massive surge of females born? skeptical

Someone got paid for studying this

This from the science staff. Adds new meaning to the concept of correlation.

Everyone should all feel a bit dumber after reading this drivel.

Wut?

Maybe they decided to be girls before they were born. I heard that's a thing, I think, on CBC.

What does one have to do with the other?

“journalism”

More TDS

Why would anyone buy this phoney rag?

Does Canadian MSM keep a list of deranged people obsessed with Trump on file, or do they come to you?

Crazy Fake News “Journalist” employed by Fake News Liberal Rag says what? Trump2020

You have to get behind the paywall to discover that’s because more of them are identifying as attack helicopters.

Could be a Trudeau impact, elected PM in 2015 and 9 months later...

Why are you assuming the gender of these babies?

Omfg....this can’t be a real article? No way someone sat down at a computer and wrote this shit ?

What?!?! Do you even hear yourself? Or read the crap you post?

Ya... you should put that behind your paywall as your TDS is spreading. MarkDice ezralevant marklevinshow

The headline... wow. The Globe and Mail? Really?

Canada: how can i seem like an even creepier neighbour about the politics south of the border? TG&M: hold my beer.....

The title should be 'Researcher shoehorns data blip into desired narrative.' That's one hell of a leap.

Your TDS is approaching CBC levels, you presstitutes. You wonder why no one but the koolaid drinkers take you seriously?

Are you smoking crack over there globe?

The Globe just lost my subscription!! Oh, I don't subscribe anyway, but good to know I made the right choice! This is worthy of the Onion though, will give you that. And has to be a joke, the guy who wrote has semen in his name, right? Has to be...non? Will go viral for sure.

Trump derangement Syndrome is strong at the Globe and Mail

Wow! This is some relevant news! WTF is wrong with your paper?

Trump had a hand in this how? Or is this a joke?

Stellar reporting, award worthy. 🤯. That media buyout has really sharpened the sword.

It's only March, but we could well be staring at the dumbest headline of the year

So millennials don’t know how to f...., hardly a surprise. There isn’t much privacy in those safe space shelters.

Trump causes spontaneous fetus gender changes in Canadians.... Trump is Omnipotent.

Okay, you win. I’m clicking.
