Muskoka Pride kicked off its tenth annual festival with an afternoon party in River Mill Park on Friday, July 19. It\u2019s the seventh year that the festival has launched in Huntsville.<\/p>\n

Everyone was welcome to attend the event, which featured a variety of vendors and activities including a hula hoop contest, live music from the Emily Bridle band, and free hot dogs cooked up by the Huntsville Lake of Bays Fire Department.<\/p>\n

Muskoka Pride 2019 t-shirts were being sold to raise money for events going on throughout the festival.<\/p>\n

Mayor Scott Aitchison and local MP Tony Clement took to the stage to show their support for Muskoka Pride and help launch the festival.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s festival theme is \u201cReflecting Pride\u201d.<\/p>\n

2019 marks the 50-year anniversary of the Stonewall riots, which began after New York City police raided a gay club called the Stonewall Inn in the early hours of June 28, 1969 and continued for several days. The riots were a response to continued harassment of the LGBT community by police, and the anti-gay laws of the time. The Stonewall riots are credited with starting the gay rights movement in North America. Muskoka Pride organizers are asking festival attendees to reflect on the progress that has been made in LGBTQ2+ rights over the last five decades while recognizing that there is still work to be done.<\/p>\n

\u201cFifty years ago I could have been arrested just for being gay,\u201d said Muskoka Pride board member Shawn Forth. \u201cRight now we are really focusing on intersectionality within the Queer community. Intersectional meaning that some members of the LGBTQ+ community face two forms of discrimination, may that be gay and black, trans and black, et cetera. Us privileged middle class white members of the LGBTQ+ community need to act as allies in support of marginalized people.\u201d<\/p>\n

There has been significant debate within the LGBTQ2+ community in recent years about whether or not police officers should be allowed in uniform at Pride events.<\/p>\n

In Toronto in 2017 and 2018, uniformed officers were banned from participating in the Toronto Pride Parade, a move that was sparked by a Black Lives Matter protest at the 2016 parade. This year, Pride Toronto members decided, in a narrow vote, to extend that ban indefinitely<\/a><\/span> due to continued tensions between the gay community and local police. Officers can still participate if not in uniform.<\/p>\n

Locally, however, the Muskoka Pride board believes that it is more productive to engage with police members instead of excluding them.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy refusing to engage in open discussions with police that doesn\u2019t allow for opportunities of ally-ship,\u201d said Forth.<\/p>\n
