Prince Albert Pride has announced that it will ban members of the Sask. Party and Saskatchewan United Party from participating in Pride Month activities due to their support for Bill 137, the province’s transphobic pronoun legislation. The decision follows a similar move by Queen City Pride in Regina, which declined to proclaim Pride Month at the legislature this year due to the actions of the Saskatchewan government. PA Pride chair Chelsea Bleau said that the organization believes Bill 137 is an attack on the rights of two-spirit and trans young people, and that having MLAs who support the legislation attend Pride events would be disrespectful and harmful to the LGBTQ2S+ community.
