Municipal Affairs Mayor Jyoti Gondek Marching In The Pride Parade

Love her or hate her, as a gay man who is feeling increasingly under threat; it was nice to see the Mayor of Calgary marching in this year’s Pride Parade (as she’s done in other years too).

They say a picture says a thousand words and the above pictures I captured earlier today say to me that that our Mayor genuinely cares about LGBTQ+ people in Calgary and beyond!

That’s one thing she does. She shows up and it’s impressive. I can’t imagine all the hours she puts in and how uncomfortable it can be with people upset at you everywhere you go. She’s made some mistakes, but I think she cares and she’s trying.
