What the hell the Trans March starts at 5pm this year?! My trans siblings have to work. This timing is unacceptable.

Happy pride! (My daughter about 10 years ago when we had more opportunity to head down Pride in Toronto.) The event is crazy welcoming to families and there is no one kinder to families than the drag queens.
