New site, new route, extra day on deck for Vancouver Pride events in 2023 by Elizabeth McSheffrey

May 18, 2023

Excerpt:
“Heather McCain of Live, Educate, Transform Society — formerly Creating Accessible Neighbourhoods — welcomed the changes to the route and festival.
“The new festival location is a much-needed change,” she said. “We are excited that there is flat access without fills, concrete, less grass, and no sand in passive travel … and plenty of room for harm reduction and low-sensory areas.”
McCain said many 2SLGBTQIA+ members feel “excluded from or discouraged” due to the inaccessibility of many Pride events.”
