Canada invests $100 million into ‘historic’ action plan for 2SLGBTQI+ communities 

 

OTTAWA — The federal government unveiled what it described as a historic first on Sunday as it announced a five-year, $100 million plan to support LGBTQ, two-spirit and intersex communities across the country.

 

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled the strategy, dubbed “Canada’s first federal 2SLGBTQI+ Action Plan,” at a news conference ahead of the pride parade in Ottawa — the first in-person march after a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19.
