Hey Everyone,

Just wondering who all from the site will be attending the annual Toronto Transgender March ?. If you're going let me know maybe we can go together, always nice to see others who attend these fabulous events :-).

Oh, I would love to go, but I have no way to get there.   I live in Brantford, Ontario, about 90 miles SW of Toronto.

I will be there!  I live in St. Catharines, so I could give a lift IN to TO, but not out, as I will be staying the whole weekend, Friday till Sunday (staying with a friend in the Village).  4Life, I think I have you on Facebook?  Hope to see you there!

Last year was a hoot.  There had been an article in the Toronto Star the week before talking about how "Gay Activism [was] Making a Comeback", and also attempted to make the point that trans people were still not being included in Pride festivities, but a misprint read "Trains and racialized people are still being excluded."  So there was a woman named steen starr making a film that weekend, getting peoples' reaction.  I ended up in the film (but only for about 2 seconds, near the end), so I went and saw it Thursday night.  It was pretty awesome!
