Consultation has concluded

The City of Hamilton's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer (LGBTQ) Advisory Committee has held an event at City Hall to recognize Pride for many years. In 2019, the Committee recommended to the City that it not hold a flag raising ceremony. Since that time, and since the events of Pride 2019, there have been many conversations in Two Spirit and LGBTQIA+ communities about this and other related issues.

We want to hear from you!

The LGBTQ Advisory Committee hopes to make a recommendation to City Council about a potential event commemorating Pride and would like your feedback. Survey is open April 29 to May 13, 2021.

The LGBTQ Advisory Committee will be presenting the survey results at its meeting on Tuesday, May 18, 2021. Please visit the Committee's page on the City of Hamilton's website closer to that date for a report on the results.

Follow the LGBTQ Advisory Committee on Twitter and Facebook to find out how you may view the May 18th meeting where the results will be shared.

When the data has been collected through the survey, and as we present it to the Committee in May, we will also look to the report Mapping the Void: Two-Spirit and LGBTQ+ Experiences in Hamilton to help inform our recommendation.
