A number of key dignitaries and politicians took the time to visit PrideHouse Toronto during the Pan Am Games on July 24, 2015.
Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne took a tour of the PrideHouse Pavilion. Her government helped fund PrideHouse Toronto with the aim of improving inclusion in sports.
Elizabeth Dowdeswell, the lieutenant-governor of Ontario, toured the pavilion and chatted with PrideHouse visitors gathered to watch the 2015 Games.
The day was topped off with a visit and speech by Toronto Mayor John Tory, who spoke at a PrideHouse reception.
“This PrideHouse and this city are really setting a standard for everyone to feel empowered to be the best that they are and can be at school, at work, in the arts and in sports,” he said.
