今天的民意调查(refer to "24 Hours", June 19th 2006):
will you be taking part in any Pride Week events this year?
为什么叫作“Pride Week”?今天问同事才知道一些“Pride Week”的含义和来历。
听说和前任市长Mel Lastman 很有关系。去年的Pride Week,这个Mel Lastman 亲自参加了游行。
查到一些资料:
Pride Week is the fun and fabulous arts and culture festival that happens each year in Toronto. Pride Week celebrates our diverse sexual and gender identities, histories, cultures, families, friends and lives (See our mission statement below for more information).
Our Mission:
Pride Toronto exists to celebrate the history, courage, diversity and future of Toronto's communities.
Pride Week 2006 is the 26th annual Pride Week.
This year's theme is Fearless! Fearless is about how far we've come and how far we've to go; it’s about being bold, proud and true; it's about the courage to be open about who you are, and to celebrate people in our past and present who make it increasingly possible to live without fear.
The colourful and flamboyant Pride Week Festival cannot take place without the participation of thousands of individuals, community groups, businesses, sponsors and partners like you.
Last year, you marched in the Pride Parade and Dyke March, built fabulous floats, set up booths in the Community Fair and Marketplace, entertained at the Community Café, and volunteered to make Pride Week happen.
Returning for our 26th year celebration, we invite you to join the dynamic Pride Week 2006, Monday June 19th to Sunday June 25th.
