"The Organisation Intersex International, an association incorporated
in Quebec with international membership, wishes to thank the elected
officials of the City of Montreal who at the City Council Meeting of
November 26, 2007 officially adopted the "Declaration of Montreal"
which demands that genital surgery on intersex persons be prohibited
unless they are old enough to understand it and consent to it."

Oh, we are so insanely progressive in this province. 
It would have been embarassing that the city
not approve of a declaration with its name.
