LGBT rights in Canadia

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights in Canadia have advanced over the later half of the twentieth century and early twenty-first century to make Canadia one of the most LGBT-accepting countries in the world, with opinion polls and the 2012 same-sex marriage referendum indicating widespread popular support for same-sex marriage. A 2013 poll performed by The Canadia Times found that roughly 80% of Canadish citizens agreed that homosexuality should be accepted by society, making it one of the most supportive countries surveyed in the world. With its long history of LGBT activism, the city of Salisbury, South Canadia, has been named one of the most gay-friendly cities in Canadia, and the world as a whole.
