This is Rob McKee who just spoke in front of #ottcity council. For those who don't know Rob, he is the leader of the far-right, anti-trans Bikers Church in Ottawa. In the clip, he openly says that @OttawaPolice INVITED him to join anti-trans protests...wtf...

Creepy weirdos Billboard Chris and Maxime Bernier plan to gather this Friday in front of our schools to spread transphobic hatred. Again. Let's show up and support community members who shouldn't have to deal with weird men harassing kids at school. #Ottawa

Our shelter system is overwhelmed, and the city is looking at a sprung structure to address this crisis. Fear-mongering opposition from local MPPs and councillors has been unproductive and quite frankly, problematic. Read our full statement: horizonottawa.ca/sprung_stru…

Lack of civility and decorum is not the problem, fascism, and a liberal unwillingness to name, never mind confront, the problem is.

How can we address the serious threats to our public institutions if we can’t even discuss the source of the problem because “bOtH sIdEs”?

In fact, focusing on a lack of civility and decorum only serves to make things worse, as marginalized people are told that it is impolite to harshly criticize the people who shout slurs at us on the street and try to strip us of our rights.

Thanks for coming out, Charlie!
I saw the "million man march" crew at Parliament. They were off by about five zeros. And the ones who were there got totally freaked out by the queer and trans youth who showed up. As always, when confronted bullies turn to snowflakes.

Politicians should be paying attention to what happened yesterday. Despite the rage baiting, despite the misinformation, despite how easy it is to fear difference, bigotry was easily outnumbered across Canada. Even in the western provinces. Transphobia is not gaining traction. It's losing. Betting your electoral fortunes on using it as a tool? Maybe look around, give your head a shake, and realize that's the losing strategy. #nospaceforhate

CUPE Ontario President, Fred Hahn, and members of our Pink Triangle Committee joined counter protesters in Toronto today in standing up to right wing activists who organized to protest teaching 2SLGBTQIA content in schools under the guise of protecting children. They continue to target those that are most vulnerable in our communities and schools. 🚫‼️ Unions will always fight for a fairer, just, and more equitable future for all – including our children. ✊🏾📢🏳️‍🌈

3/ Today and every day hereafter, we say “fuck off, fascists,” not out of hatred but out of our fierce love for one another and our burning desire for a better future for all. September 20th will never belong to the bigots and the transphobes. It belongs to us. ¡No pasarán!
