Visualizing CAMH’s stranglehold on Canadian trans health services

  

Lynn Conway notes:

This interactive map reveals that the Centre for Addiction and mental Health (CAMH) not only controls the fate of gender transitioners in Ontario, but in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland too.  It also reveals that CAMH requires a two-year RLE in all cases, in non-compliance with the WPATH Standards of Care.

It’s horrible. They have control of everyone now except BC and Quebec, and that is only because Quebec has its own program and BC used to until the Liberal government cut its funding when it came into power. The ship still manages to run in BC despite the lack of an official transgender program now. I’d hate to see how bad it would have been if I ended up in a different province. By the way, There is only a one year Real Life Test in BC now, not two. I don’t know when they changed it - probably recently - but I do know that recently when I went for my surgical evaluation, it only said one year on my paperwork.
