Pride Toronto 2015 may have been the wettest in recent memory, but it also featured Toronto’s largest-ever trans pride celebration and protest. Canada’s first ever Trans* Pride Fair, an extended Trans* Pride March and the Transforming Pride showcase event with Chaz Bono, were major highlights on Friday, June 26. We captured our favourite moments of the march below.
