Following Andres' dominant display, where she beat her nearest challenger by over 200 kilograms in total, Hutchinson appeared on TalkTV's Piers Morgan Uncensored to condemn the victory as unfair.

'It's been very disheartening, that national record that he broke athletes have been chasing that for years,' she said. 'It just goes to show the physical advantages that a male has over a female.'

In response, the Canadian Powerlifting Union says it has recommended that Hutchinson be suspended for two years, which she said was for 'speaking publicly about the unfairness of biological males being allowed to taunt female competitors and loot their winnings.'
