"As far as we know, this is the first time any city has proclaimed a Year of the Queer," said Tim Stevenson, Vancouver's deputy mayor.
According to the city, the 'Year of the Queer' is a celebration of queer contributions to the artistic, cultural and social landscape of Vancouver.

While I have no problem with gays or trans, I fail to see why the effort to single out celebration for their thing
Seems a phony PC publicity stunt.

BTW whatever happened to the definition of tolerance?
Tolerance used to be "I don't agree with that, but its your life, do as you want"
Now its "you will accept this group, and love them unconditionally, or else."

Exactly! I've got no problem with them doing whatever freakish shit they do in their own homes, but I sure as hell don't need to see them parading around town in their assless leather chaps!

Canadian Jews tend to be more conservative than their American counterparts..
They're not as conservative as Chinese Canadians, but more conservative for sure than French speaking Quebeckers as others here have posted.
