The Toronto Pride Parade transformed the Church-Wellesley Village and downtown core into the heart of one of North America’s largest 2SLGBTQIA+ celebrations.
Prime Minister Mark Carney and Mayor Olivia Chow were among those who took part as colourful floats, performers, community groups and marchers fill the streets for the grand finale of Pride weekend.
From the Trans March and Dyke March to Sunday’s iconic Pride Parade, hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take part in a weekend of celebration, advocacy and community.
