Global Affairs Canada issues LGBTQ+ travel advisory for United States
OTTAWA — Canada is warning members of the LGBTQ+ community that they may face discrimination if they travel to some places in the United States.
Global Affairs Canada says in a new updated posted today that Canadians should check relevant state laws because some have new policies and legislation that might affect LGBTQ+ people.
The advisory does not specify which states or which laws are of concern.
Eighteen states have passed laws that limit or outright ban gender-affirming medical care for minors, and more than a dozen already have or are considering passing laws that limit or prohibit teaching about sexual orientation in schools.
