I believe the question was with regard to how Swimming Canada is approaching inclusivity and transgender swimmers at this time. As a member of World Aquatics, Swimming Canada is bound by the World Aquatics policies and procedures, as they relate to international competition. When we send a team to the Olympics, or the world championships, we will follow the rules of the policies that have been set for us by World Aquatics.
Domestically, Swimming Canada has had in our rule books, and as part of our policies and procedures for several years, the ability for athletes, swimmers, coaches and officials, to register in the gender with which they identify. Swimmers may register as they choose. In this past year, we added an additional option of gender identification.
In our sport, swimmers must choose either male or female in order to compete, but we've added an additional layer of optional information where we're capturing if they are cisgender, transgender, or non-binary. We've added that as an element to add a level of inclusivity. Our swimmers must compete as male or female. That is the way our sport is currently set up, but we added that additional element to allow for gender identification.
For our domestic swim meet competitions, swimmers may swim in the category with which they identify. That is how we've approached it at this time.
