Pretty darned cool, isn't it?   :icon_dance:  I am so lucky that this is 2017 and I live where I do.  So sad that it isn't the same everywhere.

There hasnt been a single day in my life I havent been happy to be Canadian. Each and every day my country makes me proud! I dont care if i freeze everything but my male parts off during winter (wish that would happen though), I am so happy to call this amazing country home!!! :) <3

I thank my lucky stars I am in Canada and not say Uganda.

How this law can protect transgender refugees in Canada ?

Transgenders who run from transphobic countries to seek asylum in Canada

Actually, we're already seeing them, thanks to Trump.
