@Yonmei: Thank you for posting that link and for your efforts for Kaija’s memorial. It made me realize that while I’ve heard a lot said about the situation of lesbian and gay people in the military, I never hear about or think about the difficulties of trans people in the military.

@Cara: I haven’t been able to find such a list; unfortunately you may have to rely on Google for that one. But maybe if you find events near you, you can post them here?

@Woody: The link worked; thank you for posting! (The link is Woody’s name above his comment and links to info on the TDOR events in Victoria).

There is lots going on in Victoria, BC for TDOR. The Uvic based group Transaction has organized multiple events, some of which have already taken place, but there is more. I know that the actual event on the 20th is downtown at Centennial Square. I hope the link works!

Is there a place to get a full list of events? I don’t think there’s one near me, but I’d like to attend if there is. And I didn’t see a link to a list anywhere in the post.
