Please also list the Canadian group LEGIT-ICGL (Lesbian and Gay Immigration Task Force - Immigration pour Conjoint(e)s Gais et Lesbiennes). We are similar to the US organization except that there is a provision (humanitarian and compassionate) in Canadian Immigration Regulations that we have been using to reunite hundreds of gay and lesbian couples in Canada. There have also been cases where neither of the couple were Canadian but they were able to come to Canada to be together. There are also similar groups in Australia and the UK. We (LEGIT-ICGL) hope to have a web site in the near future but do not as yet. General information on queer immigration can be found at http://www.qrd.org/qrd/www/world/immigration/ .
