Xtra West would like to congratulate all the members of Team Vancouver for an amazing turnout to both sets of queer games this summer.

With so much happening in queerdom right now, we didn’t have space to run this impressive list of champions in our print edition. But with so many medals, you should be able to pick them out on the street just by listening for the jangle of hardware.
