Transsexuals and transgendered pleased to move out of shadows

When Karah Mathiason started planning Toronto’s first-ever Trans Pride March, she thought it might attract 10 people. The next thing she knew, she had more than 300 RSVPs on the event’s Facebook page.

Participants are asked to meet at Bloor and Church Sts. at 7 p.m. on June 26 for the 8 p.m. march to Church and Wellesley. Trans people and supporters are welcome. Search “Trans Pride March” on Facebook.com for more information.
