Ontario stands with its cops.

Good

Good. I don’t want them in this freak fest.

So much for inclusion. This pride parade has changed and now is essentially an elaborate protest with glitter and nudity for a Buffett of random causes

Tory defund the parade ... the police should boycottthe the parade they aren’t working it!! Hit it where it hurts!!

To stereotype all cops being the 'bad guys' and excluding all members of the police force based on that is the height of hypocrisy. Do not call them when you have an emergency

Lol why are we funding this shit again?

This is outrageous JohnTory should cancel their funding. We have more important things to spend Taxpayer money on.

Hey Pride

who wants to be part of this anyways

What a hateful and exclusive group. This organization has become the very thing that they were created to overcome.

Imagine the outrage if the police voted to not allow gays to become police officers, smh. The double standards are atrocious..

BULL SHIT!

The pride org and parade just aren’t what they used to be. I’m done with both.

Too much money and attention drawn to less than 0.4% of the population. Plenty to report on native affairs, or Trudeau blunders. Seems that news that affect the masses isn't fashionable atm.

What a joke. Take all the funding away. Get rid of the paid duties and on duty officers that assist with road closures. Without funding no roads would be closed and then we can call the police back for the annual Pride Riot. Problem solved.

Whomever sponsors 'Pride' MUST cut the funding. Shame on those who stand by this pathetic group of angry, radical and DIVISIVE individuals. ENOUGH . And the City should NOT give them any money either. PERIOD. Maybe this parade should be cancelled until they STOP discriminating.

How inclusive of them. hypocrites

The city should vote on not allowing the parade at all.

Defund.

No POLICE, NO PARADE! JohnTory stop the pride parade! Refuse their permit! If our boys & women in Blue can not participate, do not allow the permit!

Cancel the parade. Issue solved. $$$ better spent elsewhere

I bet those police officers prefer staying home with the family having a bbq then being there anyways if I was a cop I would refuse to do that job.

Is this not prejudice.

Seems to me that a parade about inclusion should be about putting aside differences. Not excluding people trying to attend to support you.

How is it their decision to cancel the presence of the police?

It’s funny that a community that dosent like to be judged feels it’s ok to judge the men and women who serve and protect the residents of this city PrideTO

JohnTory How bout taking the PUBLIC funding away from this organization who seem to have an issue with the police and give that money to the police so we can actually deal with the violence in this city instead

There is no pride in the stupid.

”We do what we want, ” it seems. Sorry, I can't stand pride month, too much of one thing for too long. Reduce it to a week.

Hypocrite's. Should cancel entire parade until they can practice what they preach.

😂 a parade about tolerance which doesn’t tolerate 👮‍♀️ 👮

End the pride parade

Then JohnTory DO NOT give Pride Toronto any funding. I am sure fordnation will not onpoli TOpoli

I hope that funding of this event will reflect most peoples opposition to this. Those organizers seem to be tone deaf.

Cut funding on this .........not inclusive

Has Pride not learned anything ? Pride went from being profitable to losing a lot of money since they banned the cops it is not a coincidence. Pride is not listening to the majority of the community and they had spoken with thier $$ !

All inclusive parade

Oh yeah but if something goes wrong... “where were the police why did it take so long for them to get here” Why can’t you just get along with people

Wow the very people asking for tolerance are actually intolerant!🤬

i vote to get that garbage parade out of my city too. Crying about discrimination.... Setting a wonderful example eh? Is it just me or does that make no sense? Be proud of who and what you are... Unless you're a cop. Risk your lives protecting gays, but you can't march with them.

How is it these ppl think they have the authority to tell the police what they can and can't do. Doesn't work for me. I guess gay ppl have more rights than straight ppl in toronto. Seriously, do we even need the gay parade. I don't think awareness is an issue anymore

I’d like them to audit the pride organization

Noo not attending

so they'll just wear jockstraps instead?

Well, when family of those who are at odds with the police is at risk or they need an officer to put their lives at stake for their own safety..... maybe then the members will realize that it is better to thank an officer than push them away.

So disappointed, especially for a group that is all about inclusiveness.

3 Pride festivals in a row I will NOT be attending

They don't have any say in what police officers can or cannot do. More power to the police to keep them in check and protect the community from unsavory elements. fordnation

And Toronto should vote in favor of cancelling PrideToronto funding, and Toronto police should provide security only if paid at whatever their rate is.
