Xtra.ca to live-stream Toronto Pride parade

Daytona Bitch and Donnarama will provide commentary

Xtra.ca will produce its first live webcast of the Toronto Pride parade on Sunday, July 1, starting at 2pm.

It will be hosted by drag queens extraordinaire Donnarama and Daytona Bitch and will be filmed in a secret garage location.

“I will not only be pouring bath salts from the heavens, I’ll also be stealing wallets, drinking hand sanitizer and screaming at topless lesbians all afternoon. And after that nice trip to my parents’ house, I’ll be headed to the Pride parade for a nice long nap with my neatest friend Donnarama,” says Daytona Bitch.

Until Xtra‘s live coverage of Pride begins, you can find a collection of Pride videos from this year and previous years on our live-stream channel below.
