Celebration and protest erupts during Canada’s largest Pride parade in Toronto
Bubbles filled the sky and cheers rang through the streets of Toronto on Sunday as thousands of colourfully clad revelers at Canada’s largest Pride parade voiced their support for a community facing rising levels of hate and intolerance.
“Pride is a celebration but it’s also a protest,” said Sarah Rice, who travelled from London, Ont., to take in the festivities. On Sunday, some marchers carried banners featuring slogans such as “protect trans youth” and “protect trans kids.” But attendees said the environment that makes extra security necessary also makes it all the more important to celebrate Pride and show solidarity with the LGBTQ community.Like Rice, they said they came both to celebrate and to protest.
