| | | Planning a family is – and should be – an exciting time. Canadian law is clear that discrimination based on someone’s gender, gender expression and sexual orientation is not allowed. 2SLGBTQI people have all the same rights to assisted reproduction technologies as anyone else. However, our community may still unexpectedly encounter barriers in their family planning journey because of their identity. For this reason, we are proud to launch our newest video series on 2SLGBTQI Family Planning and Assisted Reproductive Technologies. In this 10-episode series, our guest host Aruna Boodram addresses your common questions around 2SLGBTQI family planning and assisted reproduction; covering topics such as surrogacy, sperm and egg donation, adoption, and much more! This series was created for 2SLGBTQI community members who are thinking about starting a family using assisted reproduction, or have already done so, and still might have some questions on the process and their rights. Episodes include: Episodes are available with both English and Français closed captioning [CC]. For more information, and to watch full episodes, click here. |
