According to an article in the Winnipeg Sun, there were about 2,500 people at yesterday's Gay Pride rally. Wahoo!
( And this is the Shrine of Diana group, marching with our Queer Pagan Pride banner. )
The banner got three actual loud outbursts of cheering from various spectators along the parade route, including one woman who shouted: "Up with Paganism!" The funniest overheard comment had to be one fellow who, upon reading the banner, remarked: 'There are queer Pagans?" (Someone else overheard this, not me personally... aislingfae, please correct me if I got it wrong. ^_^)
