Support for LGBT+ Rights in Canada Evolving, Survey Shows

Recent data suggests that support for various aspects of LGBT+ visibility in Canada is declining, despite strong overall support for protecting the LGBT+ community. A survey by Ipsos found that 12% of Canadians identify as LGBT+, with higher percentages among those under 35. While support for protecting transgender individuals remains high, specific measures like health insurance coverage for gender transition receive lower support. The survey also shows a generational divide in attitudes towards LGBT+ issues, highlighting the evolving landscape of LGBT+ rights in Canada.
