Prem Dai Your view is the American version of views towards gays. By now Canadians have much open and liberal views towards gays even if they themselves are not gays or lesbians. Can you ever imagine George Bush going to a gay parade ? Well a former Canadian prime minister in 2003 already did. Toronto's city police chief joined the gay parade this year in Toronto. Gay parades is a big event for both gay and straight people held each summer in Toronto and other cities in Canada.
