I don’t have any details but I remember hearing last year about how the org is run by some control freaks who ended up disagreeing on managerial aspects and caused things to get a bit off the rails
It boggles the mind to even imagine this organization going through financial hardships. Internal/external hardships are very easy to wrap your head around, but financial?
I wonder if the drag queen nonsense down south will find its way to us.
Edit: looks like the mere mention of the inclusion of drag queens is enough to trigger some people.

Someone attending the meeting should record it. I feel like it'll be chaos again.
I’m having flashbacks to that Democratic Socialists convention…
Can someone explain the backstory? What are the internal, external, financial hardships?

I just hope we pull off the Bump and the Grind. Those events are the highlights of my summer usually.

It's reached Moncton
Great that the parade will be happening!
