The City of Toronto recognizes the 2SLGBTQ+ community for the contributions they have made to the cultural fabric of our city and is committed to making Toronto a place free from violence or discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation, and where everyone is valued. As we begin to recover from the pandemic, we look forward to the day where we can come together to celebrate Pride in person. A range of events focusing on community, education, and celebration will be offered throughout the month online. For the second year, due to COVID-19, Pride will be going virtual. Pride Month is a time to show support to the 2SLGBTQ+ community by participating in programming throughout the month.

As we reflect on that history, it is important that we recognize what progress has been made while also acknowledging that we still have much more work left to do. This year also marks the 40th anniversary of Pride in Toronto, which was founded in 1981 as a grassroots collection of organizers, activists, and advocates in Toronto’s Queer community who banded together to demonstrate against the infamous bathhouse raids. Today, as we begin to mark June as Pride Month, we recognize the entire 2SLGBTQ+ community in the largest celebration of Pride in North America. WHEREAS thirty years ago, in 1991, Pride Day was first proclaimed by the City of Toronto.

The City recognizes that 2SLGBTQ+ communities are comprised of some of the most marginalized and vulnerable populations in our city and the COVID-19 pandemic has had a tremendous impact on the mental/physical health and financial well-being of many across these communities, particularly trans people as well as Black, Indigenous and racialized members of the 2SLGBTQ+ communities, as a result of their intersectional identities. The City is committed to addressing the unique challenges facing 2SLGBTQ+ communities to build a more inclusive and equitable city. The City recognizes that this is a challenging time for many in the community, and while people cannot physically come together, Torontonians can and should continue to reach out and connect to support each other and share these important moments. Raising the Rainbow flag, Transgender flag and proclaiming Pride Month in Toronto brings Torontonians together to celebrate the history, courage and diversity of Toronto’s Two Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Intersex, Queer, Questioning, communities (2SLGBTQ+). On June 1, the City of Toronto raised the Rainbow flag and Transgender flag on the courtesy flagpole at City Hall to proclaim Pride Month. A virtual flag-raising ceremony took place on Jthat featured Mayor John Tory, Councillor Kristyn-Wong Tam and representatives from Pride Toronto.
