“Canada Introduces ‘X’ as a Third Sex Category for Passport Holders”

Starting on Aug. 31, Canadians will have a new way to identify their sex on passports and other government documents: “X” will join the options of male and female.

The decision to allow the third category, indicating an “unspecified” sex, is intended to protect the rights of Canadian citizens to identify by the gender of their choice, the country’s immigration department said in announcing the change.

…

A new law passed in June amended the Canadian Human Rights Act to include nondiscrimination protections for gender identity and gender expression.

Amazing news! Congratulations, Canadians! :)
