| Description | There is currently no laws banning or monitoring surgeries on intersex infants in Quebec. While parents are informed most of the time nowadays, sometimes they aren't clearly informed that their child is intersex or why they need surgery. It is worth noting that the Quebec government requires every child to be assigned male or female on their birth certificate, putting even more pressure on parents to opt for correction. |
