Welcome Hopeful Cutie to the forum from Montreal
Not sure where you are in Canada but most of the Providences have some type of goverment health care for transgenders.
If you can let us know the area maybe someone here can also offer some help.
Again welcome

A big warm welcome HC! I would start with a good Therapist who has gender experience first. It is easier to navigate the transition process with one on board. They can direct you to other resources and issue letters for HRT initiation. Therapist do more than listen to you. Mine is helping quite a bit with not only transition, but legal and other issue's as well. They are very valuable in my opinion and make the transition much easier by providing guidance and an unbiased view of your goals.
