LGBT～Society to respect individuality～

Toronto pride parade

It celebrates the 38th anniversary in 2018, and more than 1 million people participate from this parade worldwide every year.
Little bit before LGBT understanding is advanced in Toronto's Ontario state because a judicial judgment that legal sexual marriage was legal was done shortly before gay marriage was accepted in Canada.
15 blocks are pedestrian heaven, and live stage is established at 5 and 6 places.
The pride march is divided into three.
①「Transplide」The transgender 's march.
②「Daikumarch」Lesbian 's March.
　　The lead by the city bus and motorcycle is a symbol, the bicycle team and the drum drum team will also march.
③「Toronto pride」.It will take a morning course of 2.5 kilometers over 2 hours and there is also a march of the navy and the fire.

Vancouver Pride Parade

More than 600,000 people participate each year in Toronto next big parade.
There is Vancouver Pride Association along Davie Street on the south side of downtown and it is the center of pride community.
There are excitement that dancers dance and DJs play music.
It is talked about Justin Trudeau Prime Minister's participation in the 2016 parade.
During the week including the parade, "Pride Week" will be painted with rainbow in the town.

Montreal Parade

It is Canada's largest pride parade and 2.7 million people gather from all over the world.
Because it is a French-speaking city, there are many artists, which is characterized by free show, dance show, fashion show and so on.

Since gay marriage has been accepted from Canada early, I think everyone is easy to participate.
I think that it is very influential for the Prime Minister to participate in the parade, and it will be communicated to support the LGBT more in the country.
