The Canadian Armed Forces had openly gay recruiters parading in the Toronto Gay Pride Parade, and also had a fixed booth at the parade site.
Colour me impressed. 
It’s inclusion and outreach like this that builds my sense of pride in my nation.
In the Navy…
Hey, it worked for the Spartans.
I like Canada. You people are cool. Could you possibly export a bit of that tolerance our way?
That song always makes me think of the Muppet Viking pigs…I guess they could have been gay pigs, come to think of it!
The day of the Apocalypse aproacheth!
Fie! Fie! Sinners and children too short to get on the merry-go-round beware!
Is that what that parade was about? Sorry, I suffer from gay blindness …
There were also booths with recruiters from the RCMP, Toronto Police Services, OPP, Durham Region and York Region. Peel Region didn’t have a booth, but their officers marched. Man, times have changed and I couldn’t be happier about it.

“Members of the Canadian Armed Forces marched in the Toronto Pride Parade yesterday, the first time that they have done so. This confirms, once and for all, that the massive international homosexual conspiracy does in fact attempt to recruit youth to their lifestyle. (Also, there is an enlistment bonus if you are willing to be gay in Afghanistan while carrying a rifle.)”
I finally made it down to the parade after wanting to go for years. I had a great time.
I am amazed to hear this! How do the brave soldiers of that fine nation manage to deal with their overwhelming terror? You know, A GAY might see them in their underwear! The horror! The horror!!
What is a little death and a few roadside bombings compared to the sheer mindblowing terror of having a gay man see your naked ass?! These Canadians are brave indeed… :eek: :eek:
It’s nice they finally got officially organized. Prior to this year, gay soldiers have had to recruit festival attendees on a one-by-one basis.
Yeah. Hey, guess what gays in Canada do?
Fall in love. Get Married. And have careers.
Damned gay agenda. Western civilization is doomed! (I bet they even pay taxes…the end is truly near!)
Just wait 'til gay Canadian Air Force pilots get to drop the Gay Bomb. Everything will be different then.
Well, come on. It’s well known that gays love them some group action, so this only makes sense.
But on a more serious note, I’m glad to see this happen. Canada’s been really progressive on the whole gay issue, and I for one am proud of my country for celebrating it and setting an example others should take note of.

What? The Gay Bomb wasn’t just a Mad magazine parody? Or a Get Smart episode?
Amusingly, no. It isn’t exactly a reality either, since it’s still theoretical, but the US military did indeed speculate verbosely on non-lethal chemical bombs that could theoretically A) Make you horny for Teh Ghey, B) Make you flatulent, C) give you halitosis, and D) make you sweat like Rush Limbaugh in the middle of a massive liberal rally full of gassy gay men with bad breath.
The idea even won an Ig Nobel award in 2007.
Next up it’s the Sacred Band of Thunder Bay.
Why is the American military still in 1908? They’ll let illegal aliens join the services but they’ll kick out Arabic interpreters who are gay. While this is just a tiny part, I’m still convinced that a century from now this is going to be the most impossible to understand era of U.S. Government in history courses and probably will have as many historians as the Civil War and World War II together have now. (“So after the Saudi Arabian born terrorists in Afghanistan attacked on September 11 the U.S.A. went to war against Islamic Fundamentalist terrorism everywhere, stopping briefly in Afghanistan and then proceeding to knock out the only secular dictator in the Middle East while maintaining our alliance with the fundamentalist government in Saudi Arabia where homosexuals were beheaded rather than just not allowed in the military and were the birthplace of most of the terrorists responsible for 9-11 and the capitol of Wahabbism itself… so are you with me class?”)
We even have our own ROTC (Righteously Outrageous Twirling Corps).
Muffin, forgive me for the hijack but I wanted to post this and couldn’t figure out where to put it.
David Paterson, recently ascended governor of New York, marched in the Gay Pride Day parade yesterday.
Not only was he the first ever New York State government to do so, but he had cataract surgery on Saturday and was told by his doctors not to participate.
Given that he feels strongly enough about gay rights and inclusion that he recently issued an executive directive that all New York State government agencies recognize marriages from other states, he made it his duty to ignore his doctors be there to express his support for those whose day (and week) it was.
Step by step, we’re getting there.
His doctors should have realized that it is masturbation, not gayification, that makes one go blind. 
Yeh, what’s all this about gays in the military destroying unit cohesion? Seems rather counterintuitive.
