This bill would amend the Canadian Human Rights Act in order to add, as prohibited grounds of discrimination, gender identity and gender expression.
The bill would also amend the Criminal Code in order to add, as distinguishing characteristics protected under the Criminal Code, gender identity and gender expression.
This bill does not appear to be outside federal jurisdiction. It does not appear to clearly violate the Constitution. There is no similar private member's bill that has been voted on in the current session, and there's no similar government bill on the order paper.
