Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Sunday
he will be dumping $100 million into something called the “2SLGBTQI+ Action Plan.” The press release wasn’t big on specifics, but it’s basically a $100 million payout to
whichever community organizations happen to be in the government’s good graces on queer issues – with funding prioritized for any groups experiencing “additional marginalization” on account of being Black or Indigenous.
Don’t know what 2SLGBTQI+ stands for? Ottawa helpfully explained that it stands for “Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and additional sexually and gender diverse people.” The nine-character moniker is “more inclusive” than LGBT, they explain.
