'X' marks the spot with new gender-neutral option on government ID


British Columbians who don't identify as either male or female now have the choice to display an X in the gender field of their B.C. "Including the X gender designation on key ID is an important step in this," he said. The ministries of Health, Citizens' Services and Attorney General worked together to get the X designation option. A few months later, in August 2017, the federal government introduced the X option on Canadian passports. Ontario, Alberta and the Northwest Territories have already introduced the X option on government-issued ID.
