Statistics Canada has reported that in 2023, hate crimes that targeted sexual orientation increased 69% from 2022.
While these numbers are alarming, they are unsurprising as they have been going up every year.
From 2016 to 2023, police-reported hate crimes that were motivated by sexual orientation have increased a staggering 388%.
Enough is enough.
Now more than ever, we need your support so we can continue to build and share critical resources to put an end to this staggering rise in hate and violence through our Rainbow Action Hub. < [link removed] >
