Article about an organization, not properly referenced as passing WP:ORGDEPTH or WP:GNG. Except for one news article which glancingly namechecks this group's existence because a spokesperson for it gave a brief soundbite to a reporter on a topic other than this group per se, this is otherwise referenced entirely to primary sources that are not support for notability at all, such as press releases and the self-published websites of organizations that aren't media. (I also had to strip one circular citation to another Wikipedia article, which is not permitted at all.)
There's just nothing here that would be "inherently" notable enough to exempt the group from having to the subject of real media coverage. Bearcat (talk) 13:22, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, due to a lack of significant coverage by independent sources. I found a bunch of sources on Newspapers.com, but they're all passing mentions. There's plenty out there to verify the group being the oldest or largest trans support group in Ottawa at various points in history or who some of the past presidents are, but no source devotes significant attention to the group itself.
