The Taiwanese Human Rights Association of Canada has issued a statement sent to legislators in Taiwan, stating support for support for the Equal Marriage Act as proposed by legislators Teng Li-chun, You Mei-nu, Hsiao Mei-chin et al (我們支持由鄭麗君、尤美女、蕭美琴等立委共同提出的婚姻平權「多元成家」法案)。
The letter, sent in English and Chinese versions states that THRAC "believes that the issue of equal marriage (same-sex marriage) is an important human rights issue in the world today. For this reason we declare our support for the Equal Marriage Act as proposed by legislators Teng Li-chun, You Mei-nu , Hsiao Mei-chin et al. This is a reasonable bill, removing gender reference from the relevant laws, thus permitting same-sex marriage without inserting other political agendas into the bill."
