Quebec makes it easier for transgender people to change sex on documents

"Quebec is making it easier for transgender people to legally change their sex on official documents.

The provincial government two years ago dropped its requirement that transgender people undergo reassignment surgery before changing the sex on their birth certificates.

But it still required that people seeking the change have lived full time as their chosen sex for at least two years and obtain a letter from a medical professional confirming that they are transgender as well as an affidavit."
