Ottawa is located on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinabeg Nation on the banks of the river they called the Kichi Sibi (now called the Ottawa).

Ottawa Trans History

Although Ottawa’s trans history was the original reason for this web site, this ongoing project has stalled.

If you are aware of events that are not recorded, please let me know.

Our history is important. It’s a powerful antidote to the attempted erasure of trans lives and it celebrates our achievements.

Additions and amendments posted to and included in Ottawa’s Trans History.

OTTAWA TRANS LIBRARY

I have been adding material to the Ottawa Trans Library in the hope that once this damn pandemic ends I’ll get it out of my basement and installed somewhere where the community can access it. The collection finally has a proper library catalogue: https://otranslib.librarika.com/search

To browse the catalogue, click on ‘Database A-Z’. Articles are included in the title so a book that begins with “The” will be under the letter T.

Some publications from the library are available in PDF format. These include the Gender Mosaic newsletter Notes from the Underground, the ‘zine Triple Echo, and the booklets Drag Queen and Transvestism. See the Digital Archives page.
