Congratulations to all the candidates, elected Members of Parliament, and to everyone who participated in yesterday’s federal election.
Democracy thrives when people engage, and our voices are used in a way where we can say we voted with pride.
As the new Parliament takes shape, we recognize that the journey toward equity and inclusion – especially for 2SLGBTQI communities – extends far beyond election day. The work of understanding, addressing, and acting on the issues faced by 2SLGBTQI people must be ongoing, collaborative, and grounded in human rights and lived experience.
We look forward to working with all Members of Parliament, both newly elected and returning, to help build a Canada where every person is treated with dignity, where diversity is celebrated, and where all are equal – and none are other.
