Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has approved a dollar coin to celebrate the LGBT experience and commemorate the 50th anniversary of the decriminalization of homosexuality in Canada.
The coin is already generating backlash, with opponents of the Trudeau government questioning whether the prime minister hasn’t done enough already to promote identity politics in Canada.
According to CBC News, Trudeau gave his blessing to the coin on Dec. 14. The dollar coin, dubbed a “loonie” in Canada because a loon appears on one side of the coin, will be issued by the Royal Canadian Mint and be circulated throughout Canada as regular tender.

The Mint isn’t releasing any images of the new coin, nor revealing the names of the artist who rendered it, claiming it wants to “maximize the impact” when people first see it sometime next year, according to CBC.
Homosexuality was legalized in 1969 while Justin Trudeau’s father, Pierre Trudeau, was prime minister. The elder Trudeau had earlier declared as justice minister that “there’s no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation.”

In either classical Greece or the Roman Republic or Empire where queer sex was normative (but considered disgraceful between adult free males) this would have been greeted with amazement and a lot of contemptuous lewd remarks.

I guess Trudeau doesn't care.

I heard that “If you use the coin, you are “gay””. True? Also, dropping one on the sidewalk and bending over to retrieve it is a “come-on”? Polite society wants to know!

I feel sorry for the children that are being brought up in a MORAL home and are exposed to this garbage. Stop making us all participators.
