The Transport Committee will be meeting again on Thursday to discuss a motion put forward by Olivia Chow with Randall Garrison and Dany Morin to remove the gender marker requirement from the Aeronautics Act. The motion reads:
“That the Government repeals Section 5.2 (1) 3 (c) of the Identity Screening Regulations under the Aeronautics Act which were introduced in August 2011 and which states that “An air carrier shall not transport a passenger: […] 3. C) if the passenger does not appear to be of the gender indicated on the identification he or she presents;” as this is a severe discrimination against transgender and transsexual Canadians and a violation of their fundamental right, the freedom of movement, and that this motion be reported back to the House.”
A transcript of Tuesday’s portion of the meeting may follow shortly, but there is audio (the meeting was delayed, so discussion starts at about the 1:38:nn mark).
In the meantime, for those who have been having difficulty obtaining a temporary passport reflecting their proper gender, Angela Reid provides this handy guide which simplifies the process.

Noting here that there are some recent changes to transition process in Quebec that are missed in the flowchart. Other than that, it’s extremely well done.
