Around 5:30 PM EST today Bill C-389, the Canadian Trans Rights bill is scheduled to undergo Third Reading in the Canadian House and its first hour of two hours of debate. 

Bill C-389 would amend the Canadian Human Rights Act and Criminal Code to add the words 'gender identity and gender expression; to it.

According to MP Bill Siksay,  the second hour of debate won't be scheduled until after today, but will probably happen in late February or early March.
