The BC Government has quietly updated its MSP coverage policies for bottom surgery, and has plans to not allow anyone in BC to have MSP coverage for bottom surgery in GRS Montreal after March 31st.

There is bottom surgery available in Vancouver, but the wait times are currently at least 3-4 years right now (vs about 1 year in Montreal). Forcing every Trans person in BC to go to Vancouver is going to make wait times even worse. This decision is so shortsighted and illogical.

This may affect me, as I had plans to go to GRS Montreal and have a SRA appointment in a couple of weeks. But not sure if I have enough time to get everything referred now.

I really do not want to wait until I’m in my 40’s to get bottom surgery.

If anyone knows any way to help reverse this decision, or politicians to pressure, please let me know.

Please signal boost at least.
