The 'Gay Exodus to Canada' Myth
November 17, 2004
GaySpaces.org was described in today's Winnipeg Sun as listing "a number of hosts" for the supposed crush of gay and lesbian Americans fleeing for Canada. I only counted five people in the entire country offering their homes through the website, however, and no one seems to have taken them up on their offers.
A Canadian couple has launched an online billeting program to help gay Americans trying to flee their homeland. 'BIG DECISION'The re-election of U.S. President George W. Bush and the U.S. movement to ban gay marriage has inspired some homosexuals to consider immigration to Canada. Through his website, gayspaces.org, Larry Dickinson of Fredericton, N.B., is rolling out the red carpet to ease the transition.
