There is now a new quiz on the market to help with an even more important question: What gender are you, really?

As the dust settles on fields across Canada, farmers, consumers, and activists are struggling to understand the implications of these decisions.

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
