[OT] Good news for trans people in Ontario

Postby Alice Macher » Wed Jun 13, 2012 4:02 pm

Today's Globe and Mail reports: Ontario extends Human Rights Code to protect transgendered people.

Ontario is the first major jurisdiction in North America to provide human rights protections for transgendered people. [Canada's] Northwest Territories passed a similar bill, and [New Democrat MP] Cheri DiNovo [who authored the bill] says she expects other provinces and American states to soon follow suit.

That's going to be one full guest room.

Why did my fingers start typing restroom? That would be just weird.

Because of lack of space, some of their house guests will have to become outhouse guests.

Hey, if you're not ready to cuddle, you're not ready to be Canadian, I says.

I just need my state to defect.
There was a girl who had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead, and when she was good, she was very, very good, and when she was bad she was homicidal.
