Being a trans and mentally ill/ neurodiverse immigrant in Canada is full of nervous “what-ifs”. After talking with my doctor though, it seems I don’t have much to worry about. The main difference between my case and the case of the kid with Down’s is that my mental health and gender didn’t come up on the required physical exam for my permanent residence app (I’m sure not being on hormones helped), whereas his did.I’m doing as well as I am in Canada (Ontario) because I am white and middle class with a white and middle class spouse, no doubt. Everyone else is at risk for denial at best and indefinite detention at worst. (CW: link contains description of abuse at immigration detention centres)
But that doesn’t stop the process from being stressful, ugh.

At last, some more work on GQutie!
Starting with this comic I’m also trying out Kyle’s new Halftone brushes , which are very nice!
One of the things that have happened recently is my application for Permanent Residence was approved! This is excellent news for me. Of course, as a trans person as well as an immigrant, the paper train is never REALLY over….
