Congratulations to our friends at @fightingwpride! We’re very glad to see this happening in the UK. LGBTQ members of the military and LGBTQ veterans deserve this memorial.

For decades, Veteran Diane Pitre has fought for justice. She never gave up trying to get justice for herself & others who experienced the LGBT Purge. In March, Diane was awarded the Minister of Veterans Affairs Commendation for her hard work. Congratulations Diane!

Big news! The LGBT Purge niche will open in the CMHR Canadian Journeys Gallery this spring! The Museum’s major exhibition will open in the winter of 2025. We’re delighted to work with @CMHR_News to share the story of the Purge with the public in new ways.

When it comes to Veterans’ mental health services and supports it’s definitely not “one size fits all,” says Kareth Huber, a survivor of Canada’s LGBT Purge. (1/8)

This #IWD, we’re celebrating the achievements of women – cis & trans – and standing with all our sisters as we fight for a more inclusive & equitable world. We especially acknowledge the resilience of Purge survivors, who are largely women. We see you. We love you. We thank you.

The Purge was an egregious period in Canadian history and part of wider patterns of 2SLGBTQI+ discrimination. In their 2018 lawsuit win, survivors agreed the Monument would memorialize this wider discrimination, as well as the Purge. We’re so thankful for their generous gift.

We were on a snowy site last week with our colleagues from the @NCC_CCN and @CdnHeritage, planning site signage for Thunderhead: the 2SLGBTQI+ National Monument. Years in the making, we’re delighted to be breaking ground on this historic project this spring!
