    Me neither. I was asked earlier this year and I said hell no. I’m not setting foot there anytime soon.

      The Nexus program is more run by the US than us. They really get to call the shots on it.

      The alternatives, then, are as follows: ignore human rights for trans and non-binary folks, or cancel this agreement.

      I’m kind of a fan of human rights, personally

        Just pick something and forget about it. I had to specify my religion in a visa application for India. You just pick something that will pacify them and move on with your life.

        Is it bullshit? Yes. Should you let it ruin your trip? No.

                He’s also throwing the environment under the bus to make Danielle Smith happy by working on an oil pipeline to sell more oil to Europe. (Who are working on reducing their dependency on oil already…)

                We already can’t breathe here in Montréal with the amount of smog we have. But nooo. Gotta keep the “economy” rolling.

                The Mexico filter is real, you just gotta come to Montreal to witness it.

                  I had to search what the Mexico filter was lol! But yeah. It’s fucking real. The light is orange. Even in peak daylight. The past couple of weekends, friends and I have gone out and our throats were straight up burning. I also have asthma, which has worsened since catching covid and the damn super-flu that’s been going around, and my lungs are so congested. My medication can’t keep up. I’m fucking dying over here.

                          One of my kids is developing into a wonderful person who is not cis gendered. This type of news only makes me want to change my marker to X. If more of us could agree to do this, regardless of our personal gender, then gender conformity wouldn’t even be a thing.

                          Well in 'murica it still would be.

                            The Americans are helping us distance ourselves from them daily with tariffs. In 10 years will we even see American movies and other cultural media in Canada?

                              My roommate because his lover is there. Insane risk I think, given she’s trans.

                              Why doesn’t the roommate’s lover visit instead?

                              Also, you may have fucked up the pronouns unless they go by both he and she.

                                        Yep I am seriously considering doing this now also. AFAIK the X means ‘unspecified’ so it’s not as if a cis person using it is somehow appropriating an identity, right? That was my main hesitation

                                          His lover is trans, you could assume good faith you know instead of being so aggressive with language policing.

                                          Why doesn’t the roommate’s lover visit instead?

                                          She does, they take turns.
