Basically, a radio host called Yukon Jack from 100.3 The Bear said it best. "OK, Johnny Hetero, roll with me on this one. You wake up tomorrow morning and all of a sudden you're a woman. Everything about you mentally, emotionally is male. You like to fight, spit, swear, drive truck, crush beers and belch. You are a man, man. But physically you are a woman. Well, after a week of playing with your boobs, it would be terrible. Your life would be ruined. There would be no getting used to it. You would suffer depression, anxiety and stress about everything you ever do, and would have difficulty keeping a job. This isn't cosmetic. A nose job, boob job, lipo, botox or collagen. This isn't something they've done to themselves, like lung-cancer-smoker guy, or severe-head-wound-quad-riding guy, liver-disease-alcoholic guy, or tanning-salon-skin-cancer girl."
To cover the previously budgeted $700 000 in Alberta a year to cover GRS, it cost each taxpayer in Alberta about SEVENTEEN CENTS. A YEAR.
I think it's ridiculous that people could even tentatively consider this a cosmetic procedure. It doesn't make sense to me. Sorry my video is a little scattered, and I hope you guys are all doing great. Send me a message if you ever wanna talk about anything or shoot a comment this way.

you make very valid points especially with the fact that the surgery should be covered if that is what is required to change your sex legally or at least partially covered i am a transman and i didn't even look at it like that until now
I'm sorry, did you say you're Canadian? I was wondering why I was extra attracted to you! I agree with you and another commenter that it's not cosmetic. In the states, they don't like people being transgender. It's weird (different=bad). In Canada, we like different people, but it's stupid how you can't get the F changed to an M or vice versa. It's nice when you get ID'd at the beer store. And how would you prove it? "Okay, sir, if you could please whip out your bigger dick" ... lol
It's not cosmetic surgery at all. It's corrective surgery, that's what it is. Like you said with the eyes - we do not choose this, we can LIVE without it, but in some ways it's necessary.
I could go on forever about the surgeries though. Both ways are horrid, I wish that there was something better. Metoidioplasty is much more satisfying though (even though it doesn't make as large of a penis).
Don't stress about him taking T. It's not a big deal, it's a good thing.

I heard this version of "my big yap", back in April, when funding for GRS was de-listed in Alberta.
