Demands: Blm and Pride

demands: Despite Justin Trudeau considerable star power, his appearance at last Sunday Toronto Pride parade has been eclipsed by the sit-in staged by Black Lives Matter Toronto, and the ensuing fallout, according to Rabble. The group had a series of demands for Pride organizers, including more funding for events for people of colour, the hiring of more trans people and racial and ethnic minorities, and for the exclusion of police floats and a reduction in numbers of police in uniform. Chip in to keep stories like these coming. Pride executive director Mathieu Chantelois agreed to all of the BLM demands, signing a document to that effect. But BLM tactics and its demands have ignited a huge controversy within the LGBT community and have led to a backlash against BLM, who report a large number of hostile emails since Sunday parade. The parade proceeded and it appeared the intervention was over. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
