Ottawa warns passport holders labeled ‘X’ before complications on the American border. This is due to Trump’s measures against non -Bohemia.
This week, the Canadian government issued a warning for citizens who have passes with the label of non -Bohemian sex “X”. Ottawa pointed out that such people could have problems when entering the United States.
The notification issued by the Global Affairs Canada states that although the Canadian government issues passports with the “X” gender identifier, it cannot guarantee such persons entering or transit through other countries. US President Donald Trump, after his return to the White House, took measures against transrodic and non -bruising people – he said in his inaugural speech that there are only “two genders, male and female”.
Subsequently, the US Department of Foreign Affairs, through the Executive Regulation, stopped issuing the “X” gender or for passport holders whose sex differs from their biological at birth. On the basis of the intervention of the court, this executive regulation does not apply. Although Trump’s government challenged him in the court of appeal, in which it failed. AFP stated that in 2019-24 the government in Ottawa issued approximately 3400 passports with gender identifier “X”.
