Georgia Straight Article on Trans Rights in BC

VANCOUVER - July 31st, 2008: Carlito Pablo of The Georgia Straight wrote an article covering the current state of transgender rights in BC.

Read the article here.

The article discusses our lack of sanctioned protections in our Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, the subtle but direct impact this on trans individuals and the greater trans community, and offers a handful of perspectives and analysis of amending the Charter to include "gender identity and gender expression".

We would really appreciate your feedback on this article. Please don't hesitate to share your perspective on trans rights or comment on your experiences with trans discrimination in BC! Please post via blog comments or via email: blog@vantag.org
