Trans rights bill passes second reading

I have a new piece up on the Xtra.ca national page (which was actually up last night, but I'm a little behind today), which was part of my ongoing coverage of Bill C-389, and how it passed Second Reading in the House of Commons. It ended up being a day earlier than expected, given that they didn't end up taking a recorded vote on the bill, but rather, let it pass on division. Nevertheless, it was nice to get some trans activists to speak for the article as well, seeing as they were in attendance this time, and I'm sure we'll hear from them some more once this bill heads to committee.
