All out to defend LGBTQ+ refugees and newcomers

On Friday, June 20 from 1 to 3 pm, we’re going ALL OUT for 2SLGBTQ+ freedom on the south lawn of Queen’s Park.

Right now, in over 60 countries, being queer or trans is still criminalized. Every year, LGBTQ+ people come to Canada seeking safety, freedom, and the right to live as themselves.

But safety doesn’t stop at crossing a border. Canada still has a long way to go to truly support refugees and newcomers.

As other countries turn their backs on immigrants and refugees (or worse), we have a responsibility to do better. Refugee rights are queer rights. We rise together!

Join us on June 20. Bring your friends, your signs, your voices. Go ALL OUT — for love, for justice, for each other.
