Didn’t the ottawan wish a Happy Passover around Easter earlier this month? Yes, we did. Let’s not talk about that.

BUT, ONE MORE THING ... |
A project pioneered by the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute is making news in the United Kingdom. It’s so interesting that BBC Radio 4’s science show More or Less just did a podcast on it. Earlier this month, the National Health Service of England and Wales released the four-years-in-the-making Cass Review which examined gender identity services for children and young people there. |
