http://www.xtra.ca/public/National/Canadian_scouting_groups_welcome_trans_youth-11623.aspxCanadian scouting groups say they have taken steps to be more inclusive following a recent US case in which parents accused a Girl Scouts troop of losing its way because it welcomed a trans child.
The US fight over the enrollment of trans children in Girl Scout clubs has played out on YouTube, where a group called Honest Girl Scouts posted a video in January calling for a boycott of Girl Scout cookies in response to a Colorado troop's decision to welcome a seven-year-old trans child into its club.
