Just when I thought Canada couldn't get any more demented:

> The Ontario government has been ordered to cover the costs of sexual reassignment surgery for three transsexuals left stranded when the previous Tory government delisted the service in 1998.

> In an interim ruling, the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario found the province discriminated against them based on a disability when it cut funding for the surgery on Oct. 1, 1998.

> Ontario had paid for the procedure since 1969\. It's now the only province that doesn't.

> Diagnosed with "gender identity disorder," an internationally recognized medical condition, Martine Stonehouse, Michelle Hogan and a third complainant known only as A.B. were patients at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health's Gender Identity Clinic in Toronto on the day the funding ended.
