Alberta – Updates to the Human Rights Act January 14 2016
The province of Alberta has made some additions to the Human Rights Act (the Act). Effective December 11, 2015, gender identity and gender expression were added as a prohibited ground of discrimination under Section 7 of the Act.
The bill does not define gender identity and gender expression, however the amendments are intended to support the rights of transsexuals, transgenderists, intersexed persons, cross-dressers and other groups who face discrimination based on gender expression or gender identity.
Alberta – Mises à jour de la Loi sur les droits de la personne
La province de l'Alberta a fait quelques ajouts à la Loi sur les droits de la personne (la Loi). Depuis le 11 décembre 2015, l'identité et l’expression sexuelles ont été ajoutées aux motifs de discrimination illicites aux termes de l'article 7 de la Loi.
Le projet de loi ne désigne pas l’identité et l’expression sexuelles, mais les modifications visent à appuyer les droits des personnes transsexuelles, transgendéristes, intersexuées, travesties et autres groupes qui sont victimes de discrimination fondée sur l'identité et l’expression sexuelles.
