Dear Friends,

No matter which province or territory we live in – no matter which city, town, or village – we all want to belong to a Canada where every person feels accepted and safe.

But a rising tide of anti-2SLGBTQI hate is threatening the freedoms, rights, and safety of 2SLGBTQI communities across the county.

During this Pride Season and for upcoming Pride Festivals, visit Egale’sRainbow Action Hub < [link removed] > to equip yourself and your communities with the tools to build inclusive spaces for 2SLGBTQI people, and help us all remain safer:
