✨ ARE YOU READY TO ORGANIZE FOR QUEER RIGHTS? ✨

Anti-2SLGBTQIA+ hate is on the rise in Canada and around the world. We have a choice: to sit back and let others decide our fate, or to come together and decide for ourselves.

We choose to organize.

Today, we're launching RainbowEquality.ca

White and pink text on navy blue background. The text reads:

"We're voting Rainbow Equality. Join thousands of Canadians who believe in freedom, equality, and human rights as we make our voices heard in the 2025 federal election. Join the movement: RainbowEquality.ca"
