Question, Moving from Finland to Canada

Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask this.

I know this has been answered multiple times but I felt like I should ask this question just in case if new Laws had passed or something changed.

Myself I live in Finland, started my HRT back in January 2026 and I was considering the idea of some day in a couple years of making a move to Canada but I am unsure how the Trans-Healthcare System works?

For example here in Finland You start Your Journey by first making an appointment with Your Doctor who will then evaluate if Gender-Affirming Care is right for You.
Once You go through the hoops taking Psychiatric tests and visiting Psychiatrists who will give You the green light, then You can start by first doing a Blood Test.

The Medications that I take are Progynova 2 mg tablet (x2 a day) and Spironolactone 50 mg tablet (x3 a day)
And it's all covered, nothing is paid from my own pockets. Except if I do Cosmetic Surgeries like Hair Transplant, Facial Feminizing.

How does Gender-Affirming Care differ in Canada?
- Is Gender-Affirming Care covered, like HRT Medications, Surgeries?
- Is it hard or easier to start Gender-Affirming Care?
- Are Doctors/People more accepting and helpful?

Thank You ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
