Chris Elston, known as “Billboard Chris” online, travels all over North America pushing back on so-called gender-affirming care for children.
Elston wears a variety of billboards opposing the medical interventions used to “treat” gender dysphoria in minors. One of his billboards reads, “Children cannot consent to puberty blockers.”
On Friday, Elston was back in his home province of British Columbia, counter-protesting at a pro-trans rally in Vancouver, one of Canada’s largest cities.
Elston has traveled all over North America having conversations with people about so-called gender-affirming care for minors, countering the current narrative with facts and citing studies that show that giving children puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones is experimental treatment that has risks. For this, he is frequently the target of physical attacks despite his calm demeanor.
It was no different at this pro-trans rally.
On Friday night, Elston posted videos of the moments that he was being harassed and attacked by pro-trans activists during his counter-protest. He was left bloodied and bruised.
A transgender-identifying individual approached Elston and started yelling obscenities just inches from his ear and continued to push forward. Elston put his hand out to resist the encroachment into his personal space and the transgender individual grabbed him by the neck and shoved him.
The shocking thing was that dozens of police officers had allowed pro-trans activists to surround and harass Elston and did nothing until after he was attacked.
Popular conservative activist “Billboard Chris” appeared to be violently assaulted by aggressive transgender activists at a pro-trans rally in Vancouver, Canada yesterday.
Though police seemed to break up the assault after it began, the conservative activist stated that Vancouver PD “did nothing” to keep the militant trans rally goer from assaulting him beyond making sure he wasn’t injured more in the attack.
He also spoke to one of the officers monitoring the rally that day, who argued that both sides were at fault, pushing back on the conservative’s claim that he was peacefully protesting at the trans rally, Source: Fox News
Elston wasn’t the only one who was assaulted that day.
This good man was also assaulted. One of three who were today. @pierre_barns was sucker-punched from behind. https://t.co/x4kpinuK8k

The most violent group in the western world are transgender activists.
Here I am getting assaulted in the presence of dozens of police who do nothing. pic.twitter.com/luJgBGPyy6

Assault #2. This was a more serious one. I was surrounded on all sides, with a man screaming inches from my ear.
I was unable to move, so I tried to get out of there. I was punched in the face, and pulled, and took a tumble.

I have a lot of video, including that of dishonest police who refuse to do their job, and smirk at me in the process.
They allow violent criminals to have free reign.
Totally surreal. Canada has fallen so far.

I need to sue the VPD. I have to.
The assault on our kids can’t continue, and the police enabling anarchy and violence can’t continue either.
What a surreal day. If you can help me, I greatly appreciate your support.https://t.co/iaBrWh2XMB

An officer at the scene didn’t seem too concerned about the assault and said that Elston had “incited violence” by being present to counter-protest. She also lied and said that he was screaming and getting into other people’s faces, which was clearly not true as hours of video can attest.
I showed this officer footage of @BillboardChris getting physically assaulted 3 TIMES and she says that HE incited violence by wearing his sign…
Badge number 3081 of the VPD…she wouldn’t tell me her name… pic.twitter.com/NcGJtdaHW5— Dan Dicks (@DanDicksPFT) April 1, 2023
One internet sleuth noticed that the officer in the above video didn’t need to be shown any video of the assault because she was right there watching it happen in real time… and smiling as it happened.
The investigating officer loves every minute of this.
She’s smiling away as I’m getting assaulted. https://t.co/Kxsn0CLgvD

Vancouver police have been shamed into investigating the incident because of the attention it’s getting on social media, but initially said that Elston had been involved in a “mutual fight.”
It’s pretty clear that the rule of law has been hijacked to push a particular agenda.
Meanwhile, Billboard Chris is doing God’s work out there just having conversations with people about the dangers of so-called gender-affirming care.
You may have seen Elston on Tucker Carlson Tonight.
He’s one man out there saying the hard things because he’s concerned about children and he’s getting attacked for it.
We need more men like Chris Elston.
John The Baptist: A Rude Awakening Precedes A Great Awakening.
This timely little tome chronicles the politically incorrect ministry of one of God’s most effective wildmen, John the Baptist, who prepared the way for Christ’s ministry.
The abrasive message of repentance John preached 2000 years ago is still confrontational and offensive today — but it is also life-changing.
In our putrid, worldly culture that has turned away from God, this book is a must-read for every Christian.
Available in paperback for those of you who like the feel of the pages in your hot, little hands, as well as on Kindle to keep it right at your fingertips.
