Queers and allies clambered aboard a Paul’s Line boat for a relaxing cruise along the Rideau Canal.

With perfect weather, good company, fine wines and food, the atmosphere was jovial and the crowd happy to be part of another Pride event.

The event was hosted by Jer’s Vision in partnership with Capital Pride. Amongst the guests were the Honorable Jim Watson, Yasir Naqvi, MPP and Councilor Diane Holmes.

In their speeches, both Watson and Naqvi acknowledged the continuing success of Jer’s Vision and highlighted, with pride, the diversity of the queer community.
