Same-sex marriage in Canada became legal with The Civil Marriage Act. LGBT soldiers are permitted to serve in the Canadian military. Same sex adoption is legal. The right to change the person’s gender surgically or not is legal as well. The public opinion if the society should society accept homosexuality, 80% voted yes and 14% voted no.
