    National Pride Month kicked off in the capital city on Friday with a flag raising. Women and Gender Equality Minister Pam Parsons says each of us can help to create an inclusive province for all people during Pride Season and every month of the year. She says we’ve come a great way in acceptance but there is still work to do. Parsons says her department has recently given funding to Qaudrangle with the intention to reach across the province. Confederation Building is also lit in the colours of the rainbow as a visual reminder of the importance of Pride.
