Ontario Canada/Ontario's Regulatory Registry
"Regulation 552 and the Schedule have been amended to remove the requirement to attend the GIC Program at CAMH and receive a recommendation from CAMH for the surgery. Instead, recommendations for surgery can be made by qualified providers anywhere in Ontario, who are trained in accordance with the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) standards. A referral for the surgery must be made by an Ontario physician or nurse practitioner."
