"Ontario has a backlog of 100 to 200 people waiting for sex change
surgery, says an advocate for the transgendred.
That contradicts the "eight to 10" people Health Minister George
Smitherman suggested would apply for sex reassignment surgery annually
following his government's decision to relist the procedure."

Hmm.... "from 100 to 200"? It's a backlog right? The numbers should be written down. Shoddy reporting..... shame.
