The Tri-Cities Pride Weekend and the Coquitlam Pride Festival are rapidly approaching and we are so excited to hold this celebration of our vibrant and diverse 2S/LGBTQIA+ communities. While doing so we want to ground this celebration in the politics and ethos Pride grew from and to reflect on the structural contexts in which we exist and resist.
We asked all the 2025 federal election MP candidates in the three ridings that fall within the Tri-Cities to fill out a short survey regarding their views on some key 2S/LGBTQIA+ specific issues.
We asked all school trustee candidates for the SD43 by-election to fill out a short survey regarding their views on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) policies and clubs (also known as Gay-Straight Alliance clubs) in School District 43.
