Solidarity with Tri-Cities Pride at the City of Coquitlam Council Meeting – February 27, 2023

Please see the following message from BC Federation of Labour President Sussanne Skidmore.

Dear Friends:

The city of Coquitlam is holding a council meeting this coming Monday, February 27 at 2:00 p.m. and will be considering the following recommendations from Tri-Cities Pride:

1. That the city of Coquitlam amend their Proclamation Policy by exception or by rule to allow for the Pride flag to be flown outside city hall for Pride month this year.
2. That the city of Coquitlam plan and host a Pride event this summer for families.

Students will be making their presentation as the first order of business at the council meeting and will be armed with this letter of support from me on behalf of the BCFED. Supporters are encouraged to attend.

There are 134 seats at City Hall. It would be fantastic to see the hall lit up with our community colours.

Please show up and support if you can!

In Solidarity,

Sussanne Skidmore
President
BC Federation of Labour
