Gay on the Rock: Corner Brook holds second annual Pride

What does a Pride parade on the Rock look like? Check out this video from Corner Brook, Newfoundland, this past weekend:

Judging by the video above, participants included lefty politicos, unions and SpongeBob SquarePants. What more could you ask for?

Cornerbrooker.com has a short written account of the event: more than 200 people attended, and a dance/flash-mob reportedly raised $1,000 for a children’s hospital.

YouTube user dannyvision1 caught much of the festival on video, and there are great photos by Tom Cochrane in this Flickr set.

As far as I can tell, there’s one last Pride festival in Canada this year: Peterborough Pride runs Sept 17-25.
