Someone must have brains there...this is also a huge embarrasment to the gay lobby, this is Canada's CAPITAL that is losing its queer pride event!!!

Yes, and a good thing. Kind of hard to believe, though, isn't it? Their mantra of tolerance was a proud display for the rest of us of their supposed better social policies. Of all the things to lose funding in Toronto, this would be the last I'd expect.

They still have to repay a huge debt as well to the City of Ottawa...and must present a sustainability plan to be allowed to operate in the City of Ottawa. The city's Auditor General will also be walking into their doors to do a total audit of the plan.

They did get credit for city services used though, and they are entitled to police and ambulance and other core services. However, they still are without funding!

Sorry, Diane Holmes, your motion basically lost! ;)
