Things are definitely looking up for the trans community in Ontario, where I live. In just this past week, we've had an announcement from the provincial government about a new transgender surgery clinic in Toronto, along with the federal government passing bill C-16, which provides for LGBQT rights. And last year, the provincial government opened up the trans assessment & referral process to more practitioners. All this on top of GCS being covered by our health care system. All in all, it sounds pretty good to me.
Ontario has definently gone down the right direction. We have come a long way from funding just about everything and opening services compared to the days of Mike Harris when things for transgender people were getting gutted during a time of hard persecution and lack of education about the LGB let alone us T's
