What a joke

The 'neutrality' petition is a thinly veiled mockery and display of far-right political stances.

Choosing to explicitly not show support for certain groups of people like those in the LGBTQ+ community when it was done so before without any issue is to explicitly declare that you don't support them.

What a disgrace. Instead of showing support for fellow humans and Canadians the only thing you've shown is that you're assholes.


Also for those who might argue that LGBTQ+ people can still show their support at home:

Pushing people away and telling them to declare who they are and wish to be at where they live isn't sustainable nor empathetic. People normally don't want to dox themselves and put a target on their backs. Those in the LGBTQ+ community merely wants to be who they wish to be.

Come on, is it really such an aggregious attack on your person for someone else to want to be a man or woman?


This is Canada for fucks sake, as Canadians don't we want to show the rest of the world that we can also be the best of the best? I feel that we can do better.

Like just look at America right now; Trump and Elon are flipping the USA for their own beliefs and desires regardless of any other American citizen. Do we really want to follow in their footsteps? I personally hope not.

It's really disappointing that there is so much opposition to the existence of sogi minority people. My position is that rainbow crosswalks should not be installed in places where people with minority sogi are not safe.

It's sort of a self selection. We shouldn't tell people with minority sogi they are safe and welcome if they are not.
