Events
Pride is about being proud,
free, and accepting of all
June is
designated as Pride Month. We celebrate our history, diversity and pride. We
celebrate all those Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transsexual, Transgender, Intersexed, Queer, Questioning and
Two-Spirited (LGBTTIQQ2S). We march for the
transgendered kid who sits alone in his room too afraid to go to school for fear
of violence and rejection. We send a message that an inclusive world should
accept everyone regardless of their sexuality and should have no tolerance for
hate crimes. We challenge the stereotypes, defamation and discrimination faced
by all.
We welcome you, your family
and friends
We invite you to attend Pride events in your area and meet the
members of the Caucus at the OPSEU table.
This
year, we are participating in the following Prides. We will update this page as
more information becomes available.
